Undaria Removal

Volunteer divers and data collectors are needed to help the long term effort to monitor and eradicate Undaria pinnatifida, an Asian kelp invading Monterey and Southern California. This is a quick growing, opportunistic alga that is capable of having a profound influence on the ecosystem and can become a fouling species on most marine structures.
