Bibliography
We've also prepared a bibliography of books and material we did not reference directly, but which informed development of Yesterday's Ocean. Some of these titles have been our favorite reading on Central California topics.

TEDx Talk
In April 2013, Marc Shargel presented a talk at TEDx Monterey containing much of the content of Yesterday's Ocean. A video of the talk is available for viewing online.

Shorter Talk
Before the TEDx talk, Marc gave a shorter presentation at the State of the California Central Coast Symposium on February 27, 2013. The symposium gathered and presented data from the first five years of research on Central California's marine protected areas, which went into effect in 2007. This shorter talk preceded Yesterday's Ocean and was titled Hints Of Baselines Long Past: A Photographic Look Backward in Time. It can be seen in this online video.
