We conduct research and monitoring surveys to better understand the physical, biological, economic, and social components of marine ecosystems found in the Northwest Atlantic Ocean from the Canadian Scotian Shelf to Cape Hatteras, North Carolina.
To understand the environmental factors influencing ‘ōpelu catchability, we combined fisher knowledge and fishery-dependent data to create a model of ‘ōpelu catch.
The Midwater Assessment and Conservation Engineering Program supports fisheries management through world-class applied science, technology, gear, and data-driven research.
We’re working with the commercial squid fishing industry to better understand how ocean conditions and processes influence the variability of shortfin squid catch in the Mid-Atlantic.
The most comprehensive, ongoing program exploring marine resources and oceanographic conditions in the Northwest Atlantic. Our analyses inform local and international fisheries management, protected species research, and climate science.
