NEW! Mega Marine Survey of Singapore! What do we have on our shores? We will soon find out as NParks has launched a Comprehensive Marine Biodiversity Survey! And ordinary people too can make a difference by volunteering for this Mega Marine Survey. More about the survey and how to register your interest.
Continuing this week! Specially for Singapore shore guides: veteran, newbie, wannabe! A weekly series of intensive workshops (8 Jul - 5 Aug) that covers all our favourite shore ecosystems, and ends with a field session! This week: a workshop on our coral reefs. Registration still open.
