ON THE COVER

The Partnership for Interdisciplinary Studies of Coastal Oceans (PISCO)

is dedicated to understanding coastal processes in the California

Current Large Marine Ecosystem. Consortium research aims to quantify

intertidal and subtidal biogeographic patterns of community structure

and ecological subsidies, create a mooring network to document

inner-shelf oceanic conditions, and conduct coordinated, coast-wide

experiments that evaluate variation in ecological processes. (1) Copper

rockfish, Sebastes caurinus, (2) researchers in the rocky intertidal

zone, (3) Spanish shawl nudibranch, Flabellinopsis iodinea, (4) diver

conducting kelp forest surveys, (5) purple urchins, Strongylocentrotus

purpuratus, and (6) oceanographers deploying instruments. Credits:
