Seadragons & Seahorses to Open May 17 at Birch Aquarium
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ***Photos Available Here*** Media Contact: Caitlin Scully [email protected] (o)858.534.5037 Seadragons & Seahorses to Open May 17 at Birch Aquarium The aquarium’s newest exhibition will feature one of the largest seadragon habitats in the world. La Jolla, California, Birch Aquarium at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego will open Seadragons & Seahorses, a new permanent exhibition that celebrates the care and conservation of these unique creatures. Seadragons & Seahorses is the largest indoor aquarium addition since the aquarium’s opening in 1992 and will be home to Weedy and Leafy Seadragons, as well as several species of seahorses and pipefish. The centerpiece of the exhibition will be one of the largest seadragon habitats in the world. The 18-foot- wide, 9-foot-tall exhibit will hold 5,375 gallons of water — that’s equivalent to 70 bathtubs! More than being a stunning display, the habitat has been designed to create an ideal environment to breed seadragons. Birch Aquarium hopes to be the first aquarium to successfully breed Leafy Seadragons in captivity. “People love ocean animals, especially seadragons and seahorses. We invite our guests to draw closer to these wondrous fish, to appreciate their amazing qualities and their value as part of our natural world,” said Nan Renner, the aquarium’s senior director of learning design and innovation. Seadragons & Seahorses will immerse aquarium guests into the underwater lives of seahorses and seadragons, while giving a peek into the work Birch Aquarium’s renowned Husbandry Team is doing to ensure that these species survive into the future.

CAT 124 Practicum, Design Internship at Scripps Institute Of
CAT 124 Practicum, design internship at Scripps Institute of Oceanography Fall 2016 Instructor: Brett Stalbaum, Associate Teaching Professor, Department of Visual Arts 2-5pm, Birch Aquarium at Scripps Oceanographic Institute, Room TBA Office hours: Stalbaum available Wed morning, 9-AM to 11AM, Peet’s Coffee RIMAC Course Description This practicum is modeled on a design firm, serving a client. The kind of design and client it treats are both very special. The client is the Birch Aquarium at Scripps, which is the public and educational interface/wing of the venerable Scripps Institution of Oceanography, which as you may know is the founding institution of UCSD. (SIO is both part of UCSD, and existed a long time before UCSD.) The kind of design our client is interested in is explicitly Speculative Design; in short, an experimental design methodology imagining the near future that is grounded in the design traditions of iterative critique, prototyping, playing with new technology, theoretical explication of the results as performed by interdisciplinary groups of designers who possess the historical understandings, theoretical acumen, practical skills and diverse experiences to be in a position to both make proposals and build prototypes. In this class, we will be turning our intellect, skills and personal experience toward a design brief given to us by the Birch Aquarium, relating to the kinds of sensors utilized in Oceanography. The experience should be especially valuable for majors in Earth Sciences, Marine Biology, Engineering, Computer

California Ocean Communicators Workshops Are the Mechanism Through Which Ocean Communicators Are Brought Together
Exhibit 3: Members of the Ocean Communicators Alliance (as of April 28, 2006) CALIFORNIA OCEAN COMMUNICATORS WORKSHOP Sponsored by NOAA National Marine Sanctuary Program, California Resources Agency and Monterey Bay Aquarium Friday, April 28, 2006 Monterey Bay Aquarium, Monterey, California Exhibit 3: Members of the Ocean Communicators Alliance (as of April 28, 2006) California Ocean Communicators Creating a strong voice for the Ocean in California You are California Ocean Communicators - communications professionals from ocean-related organizations, industries and agencies who work daily with ocean messages and communicate those messages to thousands, if not millions of Californians. The goal in bringing Ocean Communicators together is to increase public ocean awareness in California through agreement on messages, cooperation in communicating those messages, and engaging in coordinated projects geared towards raising public ocean awareness. California Ocean Communicators Workshops are the mechanism through which Ocean Communicators are brought together. The one-day workshops sponsored by NOAA National Marine Sanctuary Program, the State of California Resources Agency and aquarium partners, bring together California Ocean Communicators for the purpose of networking, messaging and public awareness projects. The Southern California Ocean Communicators Workshop was held in Long Beach, April 28, 2005 at the Aquarium of the Pacific. 75 marketing/communications professionals attended. Participants identified ocean messages and formed the Alliance, a network of California ocean communicators who maintain contact on ocean issues and messages. The Northern California Ocean Communicators Workshop was held in San Francisco February 10, 2006 at the California Academy of Sciences. Participants refined ocean messages identified in Southern California and recommend elements for the California Public Ocean Awareness Campaign.

Executive Summary of Final Report UCSD Retail Services
Section I. Introduction & Executive Summary Introduction The University of California, San Diego (UCSD) retained Economics Research Associates (ERA) to provide analysis and recommendations regarding the provision of retail services on campus to serve the retail and food service needs and preferences of students, faculty, staff, and visitors. This comprehensive Retail Services Study provides a strategy by which UCSD can plan for future services, create synergy between retail uses, or use retail and food service to reinforce the University's sense of community. The Social & Behavioral Research Institute (SBRI) at California State University San Marcos assisted ERA by conducting a web-based survey of students, staff and faculty spending patterns and retail preferences. Current Retail Space Performance UCSD has identified more than 230,500 assignable square feet (ASF)' of retail and commercial services space on campus. Based upon a review of the individual establishments, ERA has identified approximately 161,000 square feet of this space as retail, food service and personal services spaces. The analysis focuses on these types of uses as retail space. During the 2001-02 academic year, on-campus retail sales per assignable square foot ranged from $300 at numerous food service establishments to over $600 at.the UCSD Bookstore. The UCSD Bookstore estimates even higher sales for the 2002-03 school year due to growing Internet sales and a successful campaign to promote computer sales to entering students. These figures reflect a very healthy sales performance, especially considering it is achieved largely over a nine-month academic year. The figures plus survey responses suggest that the campus retail market is under served.
