This data loss poses challenges for ecosystem science and the development of future fishery stock and ecosystem assessments that are used to manage and inform decisions regarding marine resources. Furthermore, with increased climate changes impacting coastal ocean ecosystems, the loss of ecosystem monitoring data could make it more difficult to interpret interannual changes in fished resources and conservation of protected species. The TSC invites individuals and organizations to share their lessons learned and how they have adapted, based on the latest science and technology, including sampling design considerations and collaborative efforts to reduce impacts or costs. We encourage and set the stage for organizations to share best practices and experiences on the tools and strategies that have successfully overcome the challenges posed by the ongoing pandemic. Finally, as working from home with kids and pets video-bombing meetings has become commonplace, we encourage discussions of how agencies have adapted to doing business virtually, while trying to maintain a positive atmosphere and synergy among co-workers and collaborators.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-mobile-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"6\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-2326\" aria-expanded=\"false\">6.
