The Multi-Agency Rocky Intertidal Network (MARINe), funded by the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, the United States Navy, Partnership for Interdisciplinary Studies of Coastal Oceans, and the National Park Service, maintains and centralizes data from a large consortium of research groups. This official website, hosted by US Santa Cruz, specifically monitors target species of intertidal plants and animals at nearly 60 Southern California shore sites, provides methodologies used, species profiles and images, site location information, data, related research, and publications.

Do intertidal organisms simply respond to the rise and fall of tides, or do they possess biological timing and navigation mechanisms that allow them to anticipate when conditions are most favourable? How are the patterns of growth, development and reproduction of some marine plants and animals related to changes in day-length or to phases of the moon? The author describes how marine organisms, from single cells to vertebrates, on sea shores, in estuaries and in the open ocean, have evolved inbuilt biological clockwork and synchronisation mechanisms which control rhythmic processes and navigational behaviour, permitting successful exploitation of highly variable and often hostile environments. Adopting a hypothesis-testing and experimental approach, the book is intended for undergraduate and postgraduate students of marine biology, marine ecology, animal behaviour, oceanography and other biological sciences and also as an introduction for researchers, including physiologists, biochemists and molecular biologists entering the field of chronobiology.
