For Scientists

Seeking Marine Biologists or Marine Life Scientists
MarineBio is currently seeking marine life professionals to serve on our board of advisors. Each advisor is given the title of Director for the area of his/her expertise. For example, Dr. James Wood and Erich Hoyt are Directors of Invertebrates and Marine Mammals, respectively.

These are volunteer positions for the time being. Once we’re funded we hope to compensate our board of advisors for any work above and beyond what’s expected of them in their volunteer capacity.

Each Director of a marine species group is responsible for suggesting new content or updates to content on the MarineBio Network concerning their area of expertise. Board members are also expected to promote MarineBio’s work as much as possible through their contacts and networks. In exchange, MarineBio will promote the work of each Director as much as possible and/or desired.

We are currently looking for Directors for the following marine groups:

Cnidarians
Corals
Crustaceans
Deep-sea life (including hydrothermal vents and cold seeps)
Echinoderms
Marine Birds
Marine Fishes
Marine Reptiles
Plankton (zooplankton and phytoplankton)
Sharks & Rays

No HTML knowledge is required, MarineBio staff will handle all site updates and/or contributed content. Email David Campbell, Founder/President at David@marinebio.org or call him at +1-713-248-2576 if you're interested.

The following content is made available specifically for marine life scientists. Please contact us with any suggestions.

Relevant Journals
We list and describe the scientific journals we recommend and periodically review for information concerning marine life on our Relevant Journals page.

Resources
Throughout the site we link to various useful online resources concerning marine life. Most are listed in our Marine Life Directory.

We describe many of those and other research tools on our Marine Life Research Tools & Methods page as well.

Our main species database starts at the Marine Species Search Engine page with advanced searches available on the same page at http://marinebio.org/all.asp#search.

An outline of all sections and pages on MarineBio.org is present on our Site Map page.

Every page has a link titled "Feedback?" (located just below each page's content) that allows any visitor to send us an email about any errors or mistakes they may find. Feel free to send us feedback at anytime. We're committed to making the information on the MarineBio Network as accurate as possible and appreciate your comments.

Our forums, named the Plankton Forums, are frequented by scientists and laypeople alike who have formed a lively community where discussions about careers, jobs, marine science news, etc. abound. The forums are strictly moderated by MarineBio staff and volunteer moderators.

Species launches and various content work is constantly underway and we announce new pages on the What's New? page.

Expeditions are discussed at http://marinebio.org/Research/Expeditions/ and Expedition Galleries are located at: http://marinebio.org/gallery/indonesia/, for example.

The contributors and interns who have helped make Marinebio great are listed on http://marinebio.org/MarineBio/contributors.asp and volunteer and internship information is located at http://marinebio.org/MarineBio/internships.asp.
