MarEcoTel’s mission is to support the conservation of marine species and populations by conducting scientific research into their biology, behavior, and physiology, with data outputs designed for use by managers and stakeholders. We also promote the development, improvement, and use of technologies that support our research. MarEcoTel’s overarching goal is to improve public knowledge and awareness of these species and the ways that human activities affect them.
