The Sitka Sound Science Center, which is an official member of the Organization of Biological Field Stations and the National Association of Marine Laboratories, is central to a wide variety of locally-relevant marine, aquatic, and terrestrial research in Alaska.  We are partnered with numerous universities, organizations, and government departments that are pursuing research to benefit, educate, and inspire our communities and the world.

As a preeminent Field Station and educational facility, we offer logistical support for a breadth of research and provide facilitation for community engagement and scientific communication training, university field courses, rent bench space to visiting scientists, and provide numerous citizen science learning opportunities for the public.
