Join Wetlands Watch\, the North Carolina Coastal Federation (NCCF)\, and Plastic Ocean Project (POP) to learn all about the multidisciplinary partnership of the tidal flood monitoring program Catch the King and opportunities to participate in mapping\, data collection\, and Trees4Trash™ beach cleanup events. Wetlands Watch will share outcomes and aspirations of their NOAA-funded expansion pilot of Catch the King (originally a Virginia-based program) in North Carolina. Coordinators and volunteers of NCCF and POP will share how Catch the King aligns with their coastal research and volunteer programming.\n\nAbout the Speakers:Gabi Kinney (left photo) is a UNCW Marine Biology alum with deep passion for facilitating climate adaptation through community perspectives and values.

She grew up in Iowa along the Mississippi River\, where she saw firsthand the impact of plastic pollution on local environments. At UNCW\, she completed a thesis on terrapin physiology\, and began spending time in the Plastic Ocean Project lab studying microplastics found in locally stranded dolphins. After graduation she continued in the microplastics lab for a year before working as a biological assistant studying sea turtles and shorebirds at Cape Lookout National Seashore\, and has now returned to Wilmington to continue her work with the Plastic Ocean Project.\n\nWarren Darrell (right photo) is an environmental science instructor with the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute\, and an active volunteer with the North Carolina Coastal Federation\, The Coastal Estuarine Research Reserve\, and the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary.
