I am a PhD Student and Research Assistant in the Warren Acoustic Laboratory for Ecological Sciences, beginning work on zooplankton identification from net tows and using Echoview Hydroacoustics Software to look at internal waves and zooplankton migration. This field season I am maintaining our SWIFTs placed at Plover nesting sites along the South Shore of Long Island as well as our I am also beginning work on getting our Long-Term Underwater Acoustic Recorders ready for deployment at local artificial reefs as well as SNAPs at sites with known occurences of hypoxia to get a better understanding of fish abundance and behavior during hypoxic and normoxic conditions.
