December 13, 2014—Citizen Science is a volunteer program to monitor and track environmental conditions at Kahalu‘u Bay. Volunteers collect weekly samples to help the center track the health of the bay, understand how events such as algae blooms impact water quality and the bay’s overall health, and act to correct any problems before they impact Kahalu‘u’s vibrant and colorful marine life. Anyone interested in becoming a part of Citizen Science is invited to attend the next volunteer training day, which will begin at 9 a.m. on Saturday, December 13, at Kahalu‘u Beach Park, next to the KBEC van.  To learn more or sign up for the training, contact Rachel Silverman at rsilverman@kohalacenter.org or call (808) 887-6411.
