SUMMARY:May 2025 eDNA Sampling Community Science Event
DESCRIPTION:Dive into cutting-edge science and meet fellow volunteers at our monthly community science event in Malibu. Discover the fascinating world of eDNA water testing\, which helps track biodiversity and monitor our Marine Protected Areas. \nSIGN UP \nMay eDNA Sampling Event Safety Information\nAlthough our Malibu eDNA sample sites are accessible\, there are many unknown factors that could pose risks to your health and safety. Following the January 2025 fires\, there is limited data on how water quality and sand conditions may have been impacted\, making it difficult to determine whether these beaches are safe. To prioritize your safety\, our eDNA team has implemented the following precautions: \n\nAvoid swimming in these areas.\nWear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)\, including masks\, while surveying.\nVolunteers entering the water will be provided with gloves\, waders\, and goggles.\nBring spare socks if you plan to enter the water.\nClosed-toed shoes are required\, especially in this area due to potential hazards.\nDo not handle fire debris without gloves.\n\nAs community scientists\, we trust you to make informed decisions based on the evolving data and understanding of these conditions. Please do not put yourself in any situation where you feel unsafe. If you have any questions or concerns\, don’t hesitate to reach out. And for updates as new data become available\, check out our Ash to Action page. \n**You must sign our Heal the Bay eDNA Waiver before attending our event. Volunteers under 17 must have their parent(s) (or guardian(s)\, if any) sign the waiver. \n**A previous Heal the Bay Volunteer Orientation MUST be attended and completed before you can attend the eDNA event. The orientation occurs bimonthly. Learn about our next orientation here. \nPlease contact the MPA Watch Team at mpawatch@healthebay.org with any questions.
