Partner

Challenge Questions
Where should we look to find new stocks of a particular type of fish?
• “Find temperature, salinity, oxygen, etc. levels that might be associated with places fish like to hang out; cross-reference with existing fishing reports and stock assessments to identify ones that were previously unknown.”
