The Ocean Alaska Science and Learning Center (OASLC) is one of 17 Research Learning Centers established by the National Park Service to increase the communication, use, and effectiveness of scientific research in national parks. We support Alaska’s 11 coastal parks, which comprise over 3,600 miles of coastline and one-third of the coastline in the entire National Park System. Our mission is to promote stewardship of the marine-influenced ecosystems of Alaska’s coastal national parks through learning, education, and research.

To educate, inspire, and connect youth in underserved Pacific coastal communities through the study of migratory marine life. Ocean Connectors was founded on the realization that many schoolchildren do not have equal access to explore their coastal environment. Our vision is to cultivate a future generation of passionate, globally-­aware, and empowered coastal residents who take active steps to enjoy and protect ocean health.

Dedicated to honor, protect, and restore the health of the world's oceans and the life of the Earth's systems through conservation, research, education, science, and technology.

The Roundhouse Aquarium is managed and operated by the nonprofit oceanic and environmental organization Oceanographic Teaching Stations, Inc. (OTS), whose mission is to connect and engage visitors and students to the oceans through hands-on interactive experiences with marine life and habitats of southern California, and to inspire them to become good stewards of our environment. OTS’ programs at the Roundhouse Aquarium promote the study of the oceans, tidelands and beaches of Southern California through a wide slate of science-based and standards-aligned education programs with its immersive and engaging exhibits of a diverse array of marine life.
