Aquaculturists Our region is home more than 300 shellfish farming operations on over 1,000 acres. Woods Hole Sea Grant extension agents meet regularly with aquaculturists and provide them with technical assistance based on research and our knowledge of local habitats and conditions. WHSG also offers professional development opportunities to help shellfish farmers improve their operations.…
Read MoreUnderstanding the Waquoit Bay Ecosystem
A Q&A with Sarah Foster Sarah Foster is a Boston University graduate student doing her dissertation research in Waquoit Bay (Cape Cod, Massachusetts). A biogeochemist, Sarah investigates the impact hypoxia, or low oxygen, in the water has on crucial functions within Waquoit Bay’s ecosystem. She recently published research she and her co-author, Wally Fulweiler conducted in…

Environmental Contaminants and Fish Reproduction Not if, but how? That is the question WHOI postdoctoral investigator Joanna Wilson is asking about how certain environmental contaminants effect marine and freshwater fish reproduction. By applying new research tools—advanced mass spectrometry and proteomics—Wilson and her former graduate advisor, John Stegeman, a WHOI senior scientist, will measure proteins associated…
