The agenda for our upcoming Workshop has been posted! Personally, I am really looking forward to this workshop. I have invited lots of new speakers who will present on a wide variety of marine-related topics including current research, conservation practices and actions to improve our marine habitat. These will include:
- Billion Oyster Project – Restoration of 1 billion oysters in New York Harbor by 2035
- Sea Stars (Asteroidea) in the Atlantic Ocean
- Invasive Green Crab Monitoring
- Seabirds of the Isles of Shoals
- Microplastics (including hands-on activity)
- Skeletons! (including hands on activity)
- Blue Ocean Society Whale Research Updates
- Right Whale Stress Hormones
- Using Genetics to Help Endangered Species
- Seal Entanglements on Duck Island
- Sharks!
