Some previous projects students completed for us last semester have been a collaboration map between our organizations and Clean Ocean Initiative to provide locations for balloon trash collection from the ocean. As well as a seasonality map for Blue Whales and Harbor Porpoise. Other recurring topics that could use students again were yearly blue whale feeding behaviors based on ocean food abundance levels and Risso's Dolphin identification and interaction behaviors between individuals.
