The Gulf of Maine Research Institute is hosting a talk later this month on “Climate Resilience Potential in Gulf of Maine Fisheries.”
Graham Sherwood, senior research scientist at the institute, will discuss how some of Maine’s most recognizable fishery species – including cod, pollock and herring – have built-in adaptation potential that may make them resilient to warming waters. Sherwood will be joined by Zach Whitener, who will present details of his recent voyage exploring these populations in the Gulf of Maine.
The talk is scheduled for Wednesday, Nov. 20 at the institute’s Commercial Street headquarters. Doors open at 5:30 p.m., with complimentary refreshments, and the talk begins at 6 p.m. Tickets cost $8, available through the institute’s website.
