Blue Ocean Symposium, presented by Stifel – March 17

For the first time since 2019, we’re holding our symposium in person. But new this year, we’ll also have a virtual option! Participants can join us online from the comfort of their home or office, or in person at the Seacoast Science Center. But reserve soon, as space is limited!

During this all-day event, you can learn about current initiatives that are protecting marine life and our ocean environment and how you can help.

Confirmed topics include:

• Seal Science on the Seacoast – Improving Our Understanding of Charismatic Megafauna in a Changing Gulf of Maine
• Ocean Observing Systems
• A brief overview of aquaculture research at UNH: ropeless farming and integrated multi-trophic aquaculture
• Microplastics

• Sand lance, shearwaters, and whales: spatial overlap and implications for conservation and management
• On-Demand Lobster Gear
