Read MoreMarine Debris
Marine Debris Marine debris is a global problem that injures and kills marine animals, threatens to navigational safety, and poses a human health threat. WHOI Sea Grant is dedicated to the reduction of marine debris, regionally and globally. We are actively involved in the mitigation of marine debris in our environment by funding research into…
Read MoreHurricanes vs. Nor’easter Marine Extension Bulletin
Shorelines are subject to erosion when wind, waves, and currents wear away the land along the water’s edge. Occasional coastal storms can dramatically intensify the erosion process in the short term and have a significant impact on longterm erosion rates. In Massachusetts we hear about erosion caused by hurricanes and by “nor’easters”. While heavy winds, rain, large…
