Bulletin: Clam Tents: A New Approach to Soft-Shell Clam Culture and Management Soft-shell clams, Mya arenaria, are an enigma to scientists, managers, and shellfish harvesters in southeastern Massachusetts and throughout the bivalve’s range. One year, clams may settle in very dense concentrations, while, the following year, there may be no soft-shell clam recruitment at the…

Amalia Aruda Almada has long had an interest in the connection between ocean science and public health. As an undergraduate at Georgetown University, Almada had read about the oceanographer and microbiologist Rita Colwell, who was the first scientist to show that freshwater copepods—barely visible …
Read MoreHow Do Sharks Respond to Internal Waves in the Ocean?
A new study provides insight into the behavior of small sharks when encountering a common ocean phenomenon known as internal waves. These waves play powerful and still unknown roles in the exchange of heat, energy, water properties and nutrients throughout the ocean, and can change the vertical distribution …

Adaptations & Climate Change This program is a collaboration between the NOAA Northeast Fisheries Science Center and Woods Hole Sea Grant. Background What types of adaptations do marine mammals have and how are they dealing with climate change? In order to survive in their particular habitat, all animals must have structures and behaviors that enable them to…

Seasonal Changes in Groundwater Flow Into the Coastal Ocean Fresh water from water tables under the land flows out into the coastal ocean from beneath the seabed, a flow known as submarine groundwater discharge (SGD). Researchers have found that such flow can have a very large impact on estuaries. Groundwater carries land-generated nitrogen compounds, plus…
