Media highlight funding coordinated by Sea Grant for lobster research
The Bangor Daily News, Penobscot Bay Pilot and VillageSoup shared a news release about new research funding from the NOAA Sea Grant American Lobster Initiative coordinated regionally by Maine Sea Grant. The funding will support new studies, including a few from Maine-based researchers, to “address critical gaps in knowledge about how the American lobster (Homarus americanus) is being impacted by environmental change in the Gulf of Maine, Georges Bank and southern New England.” WABI (Channel 5) and the Mount Desert Islander also highlighted the research funding. The Ellsworth American shared the Mount Desert Islander report.
