Irmageddon:
Impacts on Marine Fisheries Research in the Keys
Hurricane Irma impacted more
than the Florida Key’s infrastructure and economy. Ongoing research in the
marine environment off the keys has been affected, including the study of the
behavior and population status of commercially important fish. While missing
equipment and changes in nearshore juvenile fish habitat have been assessed,
long term changes in fish populations will take more time to evaluate.
Upcoming Topics:
March 20 – Post-Irma Florida Reefs Assessments &
Triage
April 3 - Queen Conch after Irma
