Oceanographic Drivers of Shortfin Squid

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.

Population Biology in the Northeast

We investigate and document the biology and ecology of fish in the western North Atlantic Ocean.

Environmental DNA Research in the Northeast

We study the genetic material shed by organisms in the water column.
