A two-day workshop is underway, sponsored by the Department of Earth and Oceanographic Science and the College, focusing on the observed trends and variability in the physical, chemical and biological characteristics of the Gulf of Maine. Scientists have for decades been making continuous observations of this region, from hydrology to circulation, nutrients to fisheries, and have identified notable and portent trends and shifts. The workshop, comprising guest lecturers and Bowdoin’s Collin Roesler, associate professor of earth and oceanographic science, convenes experts on the region to share their long-term investigations with other experts, students and interested participants.
