Shore Stations Program Centennial

<H3>Scripps Institution of Oceanography </H3>
<H3>Shore Stations Program Centennial Symposium</H3>
<H3 CLASS="p1">"Is 100 Years of Scripps Pier Temperature and Salinity Measurements Enough?"</H3>
Daily sea surface temperature and salinity measurements at Scripps Pier began August 22, 1916.
The longest, continuous temperature and salinity time series in the Pacific are used in fisheries, coastal, and climate change research. 
Please join us to learn the history and importance of these irreplaceable data and to ask, “Why should these measurements continue?” 
Breakfast and lunch courtesy of SIO Director’s Office

<H3 CLASS="p20">Limited Edition Commemorative T-Shirts for Sale</H3>
 
While the Scripps Pier dataset is priceless, the operating costs of the Shore Stations Program that maintains it are calculable. Here’s a chance to help the science continue via fashion statement.
 
Proceeds of the t-shirt sales will benefit the Shore Stations Program as it begins its second century.
 
Men’s and women’s shirts are available in S, M, L, XL.  The cost is $15 per shirt. We can only take checks for payment. Make checks payable to UC Regents. 
 
Stop by the Scripps Communications Office just south of the pier on weekdays 8 am - 4:30 pm.  We’re in Suite 123 of the Scripps Admin Building.
