SUMMARY:Gray Whales with Dr. Aimée Lang
DESCRIPTION:\nJourney of the Gray Whale: Tracking Movement to Protect a Species\nFree Event\nDr. Aimée Lang will present insights into the status of eastern North Pacific gray whales based on monitoring whales on their migratory route and also highlight the importance of understanding movement patterns and migratory connectivity for effective conservation and management.\nPhoto Credit: NOAA Fisheries\n\nAbout the Speaker\nResearch Biologist, Marine Mammal Genetics Group & Marine Mammal and Turtle Division, Southwest Fisheries Science Center\nDr. Aimée first began studying gray whales in 2002, when she began her Ph.D. work through the Scripps Institution of Oceanography. She spent the next six summers collecting photographs and biopsies from the gray whales that feed off Sakhalin Island, Russia. After completing her PhD, she continued to work on gray whales at the Southwest Fisheries Science Center, where most of her research focuses on using genetic and genomic tools to better understand the behavior and population structure of marine mammals. She also leads the field component of SWFSC’s two shore-based surveys to monitor abundance and calf production in the eastern North Pacific gray whale population.\n\n
