In March of this year, CMSF’s Marine Resource Protection Program Director, Jess Morten, participated as a member of the Enforcement and Compliance Panel at California Department of Fish and Wildlife’s MPA Day: Management Review Forum.
During her presentation, Jess shared overviews of two of CMSF’s Marine Resource Protection Program projects – the eFINS data collection and reference system and the Marine Monitor (M2) shore-based radar systems – and provided recommendations to the state on scaling up the use of technology to improve management awareness and enforcement effectiveness.
