The Farallon Institute State of the Ocean presentation series is currently postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. No presentations are scheduled at this time, but we look forward to seeing you all once it’s safe to resume public events. Stay safe and well.


State of the Ocean presentations

See below for upcoming scheduled State of the Ocean presentations.  If you know of an organization or community that would enjoy a State of the Ocean talk, please reach out to us at info@faralloninstitute.org.  Let's work together to bring the message of ocean conservation to a larger audience.

State of the Ocean science talks are informational and inspirational presentations on the latest scientific understanding of the ocean.  Topics span global issues such as ocean acidification to regional changes impacting our fisheries off northern California. 

Farallon Institute scientists work on the atmosphere, physical ocean, and the complex marine food web from phytoplankton to whales.  They have a broad understanding of ocean ecology and are experts at understanding the latest scientific research and communicating what it all means to engaged community members.

State of the Ocean presentations are community events and all are invited.  Past presentations have been given by FI staff in Fort Bragg, Point Reyes, Petaluma, Piedmont, and Santa Rosa.
