Overview

Established in 1984, this lab provided researchers with tanks of fresh, estuarine, and seawater to study fish, aquatic invertebrates and waste water treatment. This unique facility enables world-renowned research by scientists, graduate students, collaborators, and undergraduate students. Many projects were in conjunction with the New Hampshire Department of Fish & Game, NOAA National Marine Fisheries Service, K-12 teachers and students, and funded by National Science Foundation, NSF-Japanese Society for Promotion of Science, National Institutes of Health, Great lakes Fishery Commission, and the Sea Grant Program.
