Hello and Welcome
My name is Dida Kutz and I've been doing volunteer research diving for 11 years (Monterey, Carmel, Channel Islands, Big Sur, Malaysia). I'm launching this site for a number of reasons ranging from the personal (assuaging my guilt for not completing my graduate degree in marine biology) to global (wanting to do my bit for conserving our precious little planet).
This site is an experiment. It's my hope that principal investigators seeking volunteers will post requests here, and that volunteer and paid research divers will help each other network and learn. Authors will post trip reports, organization news, methodology tips, and whatever else we come up with. Comments are highly encouraged.
I've added links on the right I hope will be of interest to both the seasoned and new research diver. Please feel free to contact me with suggestions, questions, requests for volunteer divers, or requests to be a regular contributor.
Peace--
Dida
