Briefing on the Sea Grant DDT+ Research Needs Assessment

You’re invited to an Ocean Science Trust briefing in partnership with California Sea Grant and USC Sea Grant to discuss the recently released report, A Deep Ocean DDT+ Research Needs Assessment for the Southern California Bight. Jointly facilitated by both Sea Grant Programs, this community-driven assessment provides a research agenda for future investments and immediate actions to fill critical gaps in our knowledge about the nature, extent, fate, and impacts of deep ocean DDT+ pollution (i.e, DDT and associated compounds) in the Southern California Bight.
