The California Current yields a complex broth of planktonic organisms that form the base of an elaborate food web. Every year, turtles, seals, fish, and seabirds feast in its distinct biological oases and feeding sites. This book celebrates a marine ecosystem integral to the myriad fisheries, coastal communities, and cultures of the Pacific coast.
