A large focus of COSEE NOW was broadening the awareness and understanding of the ocean and our connections to the ocean as well as the organisms within and ecosystems of the ocean. Therefore many of the projects sought to provide background materials on general marine biology topics. Below is the compiled list of resources that were used across multiple projects that related to Marine Biology.
