International Coastal Cleanup Singapore - data submitted in hours

Category : Singapore Naturalist

Singapore's 14th annual International Coastal Cleanup went off as planned, following the mangrove cleanup of the week before (all reported in Habitatnews).

This would have been my ninth, had I not packed up and headed for a whirwind study tour in the US. But there is a team in place who took care of things and they all trooped down to Wheelock Place to submit the data and have it uploaded to the web.

This is as fast as it gets for the moment. The Zone Captains are proving to be invaluable in cleaning up the reporting procedure and next year we can try more, now that we have this fast data reporting structure down pat.

The post in Habitatnews was submitted to Tomorrow; far from the best that could have been written but since it was 4am in D.C., I'll cut myself some slack.

One of the Zone Captains and the Data Manager leave for UK and Japan tomorrow so the timing was pretty tight for them!
