旧金山湾区10月25日办赏鲸公益行：与海洋生物学家同游蒙特雷湾
10月25日上午10时至下午2时，美国鲸类学会旧金山湾区分会举办赏鲸公益行，带领参加者到蒙特雷湾与座头鲸、海豚及其他海洋哺乳动物近距离相处。活动由海洋生物学家 Nancy Black 陪同，参加者在四个小时的海上行程中观察鲸豚活动，同时了解海洋生态与保护议题。这次赏鲸行也是一场公益募款活动，门票收入将用于学会即将颁发的2026年度研究资助。主办方介绍，过去一年学会已向三位海洋生物学家颁发资助，支持他们研究鲸类行为与栖息地依赖关系，尤其是在海水变暖改变猎物分布、影响海洋生态的背景下，这类研究对倡导与政策制定越来越重要。学会每月举办讲座，年度线上自然课程也颇受欢迎。对于湾区居民来说，这次赏鲸行既是一次亲近海洋的周末出游，也是一次直接支持海洋科研的公益参与。

San Francisco Bay Area Whale Watch Benefit on October 25: Out on Monterey Bay With a Marine Biologist
From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on October 25, the San Francisco Bay Chapter of the American Cetacean Society held a benefit whale watch, taking participants out on Monterey Bay to get close to humpback whales, dolphins and other marine mammals. Marine biologist Nancy Black accompanied the four-hour trip, during which participants observed cetaceans while learning about marine ecology and conservation. The outing was also a fundraiser, with ticket contributions earmarked for the chapter's upcoming 2026 research grants. The chapter said it awarded grants to three marine biologists over the past year to study cetacean behavior and habitat dependence, work it says is increasingly important for advocacy and policy as warming seas shift prey patterns and affect ocean ecosystems. The chapter also hosts monthly talks and a popular annual online nature class. For Bay Area residents, the whale watch was both a weekend trip close to the ocean and a direct way to support marine research.
