NOAA Fisheries scientists, local fishermen, and the Department of Marine and Wildlife Resources joined forces to collect critical life history data on bottomfish species in American Samoa.
A team of NOAA Fisheries biologists and international collaborators built a roadmap to evolve fisheries monitoring for a changing ocean. The approach blends advanced technology and new statistical methods with traditional field sampling data.
Results are in from our survey mission to study the winter populations of whales, dolphins, and seabirds in the main Hawaiian Islands. It’s only the second expedition of its kind. Take a look behind the scenes aboard the NOAA Ship Oscar Elton Sette.
NOAA scientists pinpoint increased juvenile-to-adult mortality connected to recent heatwaves as a major factor in recent Chinook salmon declines on the Yukon River.
How do Pacific cod respond to warming seas, and what does it mean for the future of fisheries? Satellite tagging helps scientists track cod migration in Alaska and understand the implications for stock assessments and sustainable management.
Researchers identify distinctive genetic stocks of Pacific cod in Alaska and use that information to build a cost-effective genetic tool to answer important ecological questions for the species.
Back-to-back record spawning seasons suggest that reconnecting tributaries and restoring salmon habitat is supporting Central California Coast Coho population growth. NOAA has funded more than 100 restoration projects on the Mendocino Coast.
