The Narragansett Bay Estuary Program (NBEP) (NBEP) and the
Northeast Algal Society are partnering to host a half-day meeting to discuss
macroalgae research and monitoring in Narragansett Bay. Macroalgae is an
important base of the marine food web and is quite significant to the local
culture and economy. During the meeting, attendees will discuss current
macroalgal research, monitoring, and management concerns in the region
(inclusive of Rhode Island, Connecticut, and Massachusetts). The goals of this
event are to strengthen the network of researchers focused on the needs of
Narragansett Bay, develop a list of ongoing projects and needs, and explore how
NBEP can support macroalgal research in the region.
