Marine Ecology and Telemetry Research

Our Mission
MarEcoTel is a  501 (c)(3) non-profit organization comprised of a small group of biologists whose mission is to support the conservation of marine species and populations by conducting scientific research into their biology, behavior, and physiology for use by managers and stakeholders. We promote the development, improvement, and use of technologies that support our research. Our overarching goal is to improve public knowledge and awareness of these species and the ways that human activities affect them. We are based on the wooded shores of Hood Canal in western Washington state, but our work takes us all over the world.

Help raise funds for Dana-farber cancer institute

To honor our colleagues and friends who are currently battling breast cancer, and in the spirit of the amazing animals we study and their seemingly endless ability to defy expectations, we wanted to create something shareable that would inspire positivity in the face of challenge.

We've set up a three-week fundraising campaign: Buy a shirt, with a really cool design by MarEcoTel's resident artist Erin Keene, and help support cancer research. Click HERE to donate!
