Hi All! My name is Sydney Sheridan and I am currently pursuing my master’s degree in Natural Resources from Virginia Tech. Through my conservation ecology course capstone project for the semester, I am getting involved with local citizen science. I was lucky to discover the Wreck Pond project and am excited they have welcomed me aboard! As a Belmar resident and lifelong resident of the Jersey Shore, I am eager to help out our local wildlife and contribute to restoring this important ecosystem. Over the next couple months, I plan to participate weekly in the sampling sites at Wreck Pond by collecting citizen scientist data on water temperature, water level, salinity, and site observations. I also intend to help the Wreck Pond team potentially expand upon these parameters, log and assess the data collected, participate in upcoming training sessions, and guest blog here from time to time! If you see me down by the pond, please come by and say hello!
