Fisheries

A number of projects have involved extensive fisheries sampling. In estuarine and marine habitat through bottom trawl, mid-water trawl, ichthyoplankton frames, and various dredges and pots. At shoreside facilities, mainly power plants, Manhattan cooling water systems, and an upstate NY salt factory, impingment/entrainment sampling quantified fisheries impact for Clean Water Act 316(b) compliance.

In freshwater systems, extensive experience with various trap nets and electrofishing techniques.
