16	CACS CoastWatch Surveys	Center for Alaskan Coastal Studies	Katie Gavenus	katieg@akcoastalstudies.org	people adopt ~1 mile of beach around Kachemak Bay for a marine debris clean up and CoastWatch survey; data collected include the CACS intertidal invertebrate biodiversity checklist (described above), a count of common sea birds and marine mammals that could be observed from the beach, evidence of erosion and other human impacts, as well as data on marine debris items; recently we have also asked people to include observations of sea star wasting syndrome symptoms; many people have been surveying "their beach" for 10+ years so are well equipped to notice broad scale changes and unusual mortality events even if they are not experts at species-level ID; the biodiversity checklists for this program are not directly overseen by CACS staff in the field so are somewhat less reliable than the ones we do with students	southcentral AK (Kachemak Bay)	~100 macroinverts, some common sea birds & common marine mammals	10-20	intertidal	rocky shores; sandy shores; mixed cobble/rocky/muddy shores	1982-present (with a few gaps)	ongoing	annual for most sites (some remote sites adopted less frequently)	no	no	varies	no	no	no	not formally, but notes would likely include if anything was observed spawning or with eggs	sometimes	not formally, but notes would likely include any observations of known disease symptoms or observations of possible disease/injury	September-October
