Mangrove Detectives is a citizen science program that will help identify mangrove disease and insect communities, while at the same time provide unique educational opportunities for students. By coupling field and lab activities and online tools, students receive a multi-faceted educational experience while contributing to science as mangrove detectives. We hope that this will introduce many students to the sciences and serve to encourage them to enter scientific disciplines.
