This year, we launched the Chesapeake Bay Expertise Database. This is a database built into our website with hundreds of scientists and managers who focus their work on the Chesapeake Bay. We currently have 244 participants, and we hope to reach 300 by the end of the year.

Any one can search the database by name, institution, management area, expertise, or research interests. Each person in the database has provided these search criteria plus their emails. We want you to be able to use this tool to find future collaborators, speakers for conferences, and mentors. Please consider trying out the search function and using our tool to expand your network.

If you’re reading this, you probably study the Chesapeake Bay in some way, so if you haven’t already, please add yourself to our database. We promise it’ll take you ten minutes or less.
