This page of Marine Ecological Resources was created and is maintained by Phil Levin at the University of California, Santa Cruz.  It was originally created in 1996 as a teaching tool, but has since gotten out of coutrol!  I hope you find it to be a useful tool.  I would appreciate any comments or additional links. 

I have noticed a few dead links.  If you come across a bad link, it would be great if you would let me know the specific link(s) that didn't work.  If you can, it would also be great if you sent an updated link if the page simply moved. Thanks for helping me keep this a useful resource!   Phil Levin, levin@biology.ucsc.edu
