Description

The new england aquarium helped to play a crucial role in the designation of the NCSM, providing strong scientific evidence of the importance of this diverse habitat. Additionally, the new england aquarium has conducted aerial surveys of the NCSM since 2017. Our project will continue marine mammal monitoring in the NCSM through our aerial survey work and engage the public and other key stakeholders through our findings. Specifically, we propose to: 1) conduct four systematic aerial surveys, collecting data and photographs on marine species, and 2) communicate survey findings to key stakeholders via in-person or on-line interactions aquarium visitors and followers. The NCSM needs continued protection, management, and monitoring the proposed project seeks to directly support these goals and aligns with the U.S. Fish and wildlife services mission and goals of conserving and protecting wildlife, including endangered species, protected marine mammals, and their habitats.
