Biophysical Marine Science Research | Oral Natural History Project

Developing a baseline understanding of biodiversity by collecting oral histories in the Gulf of Maine.

Tales of sea stars bigger than a large man’s hand, covering wharf walls and urchins so plentiful the lined the slippery deck of lobster boats in the winter. — The stories of fishermen and community members alike offer much deeper insight into the changes of rocky intertidal species on the coast of Maine.
