Standing up for UC allows us to continue understanding and monitoring seals, which act as sensors for tracking fish populations deep in the ocean where sunlight and other monitoring tools can’t reach.

This federal funding has enabled generations of researchers to be able to amass more than 350,000 observations on over 50,000 seals when they gather on the beach to breed and molt.
