The real-time audio streams, citizen science projects, educational materials, and outreach projects of Orcasound are brought to you by the current network members, listed below, who have e-signed the 2021-2025 Memorandum of Agreement (MOA). Any organization or individual is welcome to join the network (for free!), either as the host of a hydrophone node, a researcher or citizen scientist, an educator/activist, or a general volunteer.

If you’re an individual wanting to volunteer, collaborate, or donate, check out the many ways you can support Orcasound. Everyone can listen for whales, and learn the diverse sounds of the Salish Sea.

If you’re an organization wanting to join the network as the host of a new hydrophone node, an educational/outreach node, or both — just read the history, mission, and vision of the network, e-sign the MOA, and then email info@orcasound.net to begin collaborating. There are no membership fees — just benefits, roles, and responsibilities.
