Abstract:

The laboratory conducts research in experimental biology with specific investigations in genetics, physiology, biochemistry, immunology, algology, culture methodology, chemistry, bacteriology, pathobiology, and ecology. The prime mandate of NMFS, the National Marine Fisheries Service, is to manage and conserve the living resources of the sea and to ensure their renewability for the future. Present research emphasizes aquaculture and habitat-related work. A well-integrated aquaculture program includes studies of culture of fish and shellfish to develop methods suitable for commercial use as well as for stock enhancement and restoration. Nearshore habitats are being studied to determine what characteristics make a habitat suitable for a particular species.
