The FIU CREST buoy was reported lost again today! Reply to @FIUEnvironment with any information! Or contact the IoE director @crowl_ta . The buoy provides cortical information to preserve the health if the Bay!
**BOLO** Our good friends and @FIU Institute of Environment @FIUEnvironment have lost their CREST research buoy! ! It's a highly specialized piece of equipment that is providing critical information about Biscayne Bay in real time. (This was key info during the fish kill.)
Check it out! Our #citizenscience project to monitor flooding & heat in south #Florida is a finalist for the #ClimateChallengeCup 🏆

“We were really good at reacting to these events, but now we should be able to predict when they might occur,” says @gregorymurad
We want to ensure #BiscayneBay never sees anything like 2020's fish kill ever again: youtu.be/j82pP18wFe8
