[SEMCO] Science Pub Speaker Series: Striped Bass Research and Management

[Kristin Bullett]

Now in its ninth year, Science Pub is a virtual speaker series hosted by
the Linda Loring Nature Foundation to connect people with real-world
science and research. Guest speakers present their work in an informal and
relaxed setting where questions and discussion are encouraged!

On Monday, February 6th, we host *Ben Gahagan of the MA Dept. of Marine
Fisheries*. Ben is a Diadromous Fisheries Biologist based at the Annisquam
River Marine Fisheries Station in Gloucester.

His primary focus is on monitoring and restoring diadromous fish
populations in Massachusetts and he serves on the diadromous fish Technical
Committees for the Merrimack and Connecticut rivers. Ben’s work centers
around applying data on fish migration to improve conservation and
management.

His research interests are broad but largely focus on the mechanisms and
ecology of fish migrations and how this information can be applied to
improve conservation and management. Advances in biotelemetry have allowed
scientists to unlock the migration patterns and behaviors of fish. MA DMF
has been a leader in striped bass research and management and has been
using acoustic telemetry for over a decade to inform striped bass fishing
and management in state waters.

*In this presentation, Ben will review past and current DMF projects, and
how the results apply to where striped bass in Massachusetts spend their
time, how they get there, and how we can improve abundance and fishing
opportunities in the future.*

This presentation is free and open to all! Please share with anyone who may
be interested.
