They must be mindful of water quality and the softness of sediments so oysters don’t catch diseases or get buried in mud. Lobstermen: fishers or farmers? One of the more puzzling recent trends in ocean management has been the record hauls of lobsters that have come in over the past few years. Could the reason be that lobstermen are actually more like farmers than fishermen? That’s the provocative suggestion of a new article in Modern Farmer, which cites research by Northeastern […] Jonathan Grabowski for Northeastern Global News Treating Gulf of Maine cod as two distinct subpopulations could help fisheries management, Northeastern University Marine Science Center researchers find Treating Gulf of Maine cod as two distinct subpopulations could help fisheries management, Northeastern University Marine Science Center researchers find Researchers have found that the unique behavior and lifecycles of the two subgroups of cod may affect the growth of the species. . Everything you need to know about oysters Everything you need to know about oysters On National Oyster Day, two Northeastern ecology experts weigh in on whether mass consumption of the briny, melt-in-your-mouth mollusks pose a danger to our coastal ecosystems. Better science for better fisheries management Better science for better fisheries management Northeastern associate professor Jon Grabowski, an expert in marine science and fisheries and a member of the New England Fishery Management Council’s Habitat Plan Development Team, is working with fisheries scientists and managers to develop tools that will enhance fisheries habitat management. Members of Congress visit Marine Science Center Members of Congress visit Marine Science Center U.S. Reps. John Tierney and Katherine Clark, as well as staff members from U.S. Sens. Ed Markey and Elizabeth Warren's offices, visited Northeastern's unique urban coastal research facility in Nahant on Wednesday to learn more about the interdisciplinary work taking place there. Stuck in the middle with oysters and crabs Stuck in the middle with oysters and crabs New research from marine scientists at Northeastern shows that the behavior of middle predators in marine food webs plays an important role in the welfare of the whole system—and that, like our behavior, middle predator behavior is pretty fickle.
