With this issue, Coastwatch expands by eight pages, offering you more articles on the North Carolina coast at no extra cost. Clearly, the Tar Heel coast is changing, and its population is growing. With these changes comes the need for more information about issues, people, places and natural resources. To con- tinue in its commitment to cover our coastal region, North Carolina Sea Grant decided to expand its flagship commu- nications vehicle — Coastwatch. Going one step further, we surveyed some of our readers to learn what topics and issues interested you. Your candid responses helped us shape the content and focus of our expanded magazine. We appreciate the help. And we've updated our design, making space for more photographs, illustrations and tidbits of information. Now it's time to show the results of our efforts. The new Coastwatch is Up front in Coastal Tidings, the magazine offers briefs about the marine environment, ongoing research, pertinent publications and resources for further information. Then settle back and enjoy feature stories that explore complicated issues, acquaint you with coastal people and places, highlight research breakthroughs and return you to simpler times. Staff and free-lance writers take you from Currituck to Calabash and points in between. I promise it will be a trip worth taking. Finally, the sections at the back of the magazine are loaded with facts on fishing, seafood, books, nature, science, and people and places. These sections are designed to help readers understand and enjoy our coastal region more fully. So kick back, put up your feet and catch the latest on the Carolina coast.
