Join us for an engaging morning conversation with Casco Baykeeper Ivy Frignoca, Staff Scientist Mike Doan, and Community Organizer Sara Freshley as they connect the dots between data, local observations, and how science guides our work to advocate for Casco Bay. Bring your favorite breakfast and coffee and settle in for this “science and cereal”–style webinar.

Ivy and Mike will walk through highlights from 2025 using both continuous and seasonal monitoring, sharing what the data is telling us about climate change, ocean acidification, and stormwater pollution in Casco Bay. They’ll also talk about recent upgrades to our monitoring work, including new telemetry equipment and advances in our eelgrass monitoring. Sara will bring in how data collected by Water Reporters fits alongside our scientific monitoring, and share updates on new software that makes it easier to explore, understand, and use this data.

The team will leave time for questions, which they always enjoy!
