Show Notes

In the third leg of our journey along the California Coast, we visit Monterey Bay. An undersea canyon, sunlit shallows, and nutrients dredged up from the depths by the California Current make the bay a great place to wrap your head around the complex interactions between organisms and their environment that shape ecosystems and give these waters their staggering diversity of life. We'll explore those interactions this episode, meet the pioneering ecologist who was among the first to study them, and travel to the monumental aquarium that was built to celebrate both.
