CEDO is the Centro de Estudios de Desiertos y Océanos, or the Center for the Study of Deserts and Oceans. CEDO is ideally located for this purpose, sitting on the northern edge of the Gulf of California in Puerto Peñasco, Sonora, Mexico, where the desert meets the ocean. It is a non-profit organization in both the United States and Mexico. University of Arizona students routinely visit CEDO and the shores of the Gulf of California to learn about the ocean and its conservation. CEDO provides a library, wet lab and field station, perfect for student field trips which concentrate on marine biology, marine ecology and conservation biology. CEDO sells a tide calendar for the northern gulf.
