Three people work together on a small vessel floating in dark blue water, with a lush, green island rising in the background. One of them prepares to fish as part of a research survey while another other works to remove a hook from a colorful fish that’s already been caught. NOAA scientists Eric Cruz and Erin Bohaboy unhook a colorful gindai (oblique-banded snapper), caught by local fisherman Lino Tenorio. Blending local know-how and fisheries science is helping NOAA Fisheries better understand fish stocks in the Mariana Islands. Credit: NOAA Fisheries/Benjamin Richards
