JASON XIV: From Shore to Sea engaged students and teachers in an exciting journey to explore the unique Channel Islands region of California. This area includes the Channel Islands National Park, the waters of the Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary and the densely populated California coastline, and served as our "laboratory" for studying nature's dynamic systems during the 2002-2003 school year.
