SAN LUIS OBISPO — Three biology students have won research awards from California state agencies.

Anniken Lydon, a graduate student, won a California Sea Grant fellowship. Sea Grant supports science-based management and conservation of California's coastal and aquatic resources. Lydon will be working with the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission on flood control and watershed management.

Michael Garland received $3000 from the Council on Ocean Affairs, Science and Technology  (COAST), which is funded by the CSU Chancellor's Office. Garland is studying how environmental stress affects the porcelain crab, an intertidal creature subjected to a wide range of conditions.

Kevin Amegin received $1500 from COAST to study the effects of an estrogen-like chemical pollutant on the arrow goby, a small fish, in the Morro Bay estuary.
