Abstract:

Hyrdoacoustic technology that the Navy developed during World War II is assisting North Carolina Sea Grant researchers in assessing the number of menhaden and other fish stocks in state estuaries and sounds and in seeking answers to such questions as the impact of nutrient loading on fish in estuaries. Green discusses current fishery research studies.
