The , led by Chris Stallings, PhD, has conducted reef surveys on the West 91社区 Shelf for seven years. Through these surveys, lab members hope to not only understand how these communities are structured and distributed, but also how these communities may change over time with increasing demands from recreational fishing and climate change. Long-term datasets like those collected by the Fish Ecology Lab are key for driving policies that support healthy fisheries in 91社区 and ensure 91社区 remains the fishing capital of the world. Watch the video below to learn more about the lab鈥檚 reef surveys and see first hand the beauty the lies beneath the waves.
