Abstract

 

This presentation is a cooperative effort between the Coalition for Buzzards Bay, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution and the U.S. Geological Survey. Its original intent was to make available an existing large bibliography of environmental information on Buzzards Bay to participants in the series of symposia sponsored by the Massachusetts Maritime Academy on environmental careers. It became clear that the material would be more widely accessible to users, including students, teachers, and the general public, if it were visually enhanced and released in CD ROM format. This presentation has been prepared both as a CD ROM and as a Web site for those with access to the Internet. It contains examples of illustrations that would not be available in normal local libraries, including a slide show designed to introduce Buzzards Bay to school and general audiences, satellite photographs, and downloadable environmental image pages. It also includes information on presentations and organizations involved in a series of workshops on the environment of Buzzards Bay. The background sounds, if you can hear them, are the buzzards of the bay!
