Dive into the world of estuaries with the people who know them inside and out—the scientists, educators, and friends of the National Estuarine Research Reserve System.

About the Pod
Like estuaries, this podcast is a fresh and salty mix of the challenges facing estuaries and their communities, solution-focused science and education, and the beauty and wonder of these special places on the coast.
Hosted by American Shoreline Podcast Network and sponsored by the National Estuarine Research Reserve Association, this show is for anyone who lives, works, and plays on the coasts—and wants future generations to do the same.
