Marine Mammal Ecology
This event will feature talks by Dr. Michelle Fournet (Assistant Professor, UNH) and Dr. Michelle Caputo (Assistant Professor, UNE). They will discuss marine mammal ecology around the globe with a focus on the Arctic and Caribbean seas. They will share some results of their studies on how animals communicate underwater, how ocean ecosystems are changing and how the changing populations of these mammals impact the local ecology. We will also hear about factors affecting the health of the local marine mammals in the Gulf of Maine from one of UNH’s vet pathologists, Dr. Inga Sidor.
Doors open at 5:30 pm and talks will start at 6:00 pm.
Food and drink will be available to purchase during the event.
