Figure 1. Summary map of the CCC-PAM March 2023 Survey. Sightings of marine mammals are represented by colored circles. Circumference of the circle corresponds to the number of animals sighted. The white squares represent the start of the acoustic drifting buoys and the white triangle represents the end of the drifts. The white stars represent moored listening stations. Figure 1.

Why open science is good science

Image of a grassy field with different paths on it. There is a trail head with a bunch of animals standing around and looking at the fox who is the guide. There are also a bunch of animals working on laptops independently and under rain clouds. This image is meant to represent that working alone is not as good as working openly as a team. Openscapes helps us move away from the lonely science path to navigate the Open Science landscape where we can work as a team. Artwork Credit: UCSB / Allison Horst.
