		From those early experiences and recent studies, her passion for marine life has grown into an exploration of environmental conservation, perhaps with a focus on marine life, marine birds in areas of protection and/or management.
		During her summer WT internship, Harari evaluated certain aspects of the Harbor Heron database, a resource that has been collected over the past 20-plus years by New York City Audubon.
		In 2005, conservation organizations and resource agencies in the New York region have become increasingly interested in the effects that cormorants may have on the habitats and on successful breeding of wading birds in the NY Harbor, and this is an additional aspect of the database that Harari most carefully evaluated.
