SAVE OUR SEAS
We count on the oceans for the air we breathe and the food they provide, but with 95 percent of the seas still unexplored, we’ve barely scratched the surface of what marine ecosystems can provide and teach us.
Nevertheless it is increasingly apparent that the oceans are not an infinite resource, and in order to take advantage of all they have to offer, we need to be more careful about what we put into and take from them.

S.O.S. It's all About the Water!
Save Our Seas license plate revenue supports research, education and exploration to conserve and protect our inshore and offshore marine habitats—essential to restoring coral reefs and maintaining healthy populations of fish and other marine life. A portion of the funds supports Florida fisheries and shark research by the Guy Harvey Research Institute of the Nova Southeastern University Oceanographic Center.
HBOI-FAU Marine Botany and Harmful Algal Bloom researchers have been conducting research and monitoring activities in the Indian River Lagoon and Florida coastal regions for decades. Ongoing program efforts include assessments of water quality, seagrass status, and algal composition and abundance, which support and are supported by initiatives to advance monitoring technology and explanatory modeling.
