Seal Monitoring
Save the Bay’s seal monitoring program documents fluctuations in the seal population in Rhode Island.
Project Limulus
Founded in 1997, Project Limulus studies the ecology of horseshoe crabs through tagging and spawning surveys.
Monarch Watch
Monarch Watch is a large-scale community science project to help understand the dynamics of the monarch's spectacular fall migration to Mexico.
We host leading scientists to engage with the Island community and collect real scientific data on ferns, pollinators, light pollution, fungi, moths, shorebirds and more. These programs are posted on our calendar and everyone is welcome to participate.
