My thesis project involves using visual surveys to determine the seasonal changes in harbor seal abundance and distribution in South Humboldt Bay and its impacts on human-seal interactions. I am particularly interested in the effects of a recently enacted marine protected area that was formed as part of the California Marine LIfe Protection Act. I also enjoy assisting with our offshore whale and Steller sea lion surveys. wiley.archibald@humboldt.edu
