North Shore Frogmen
Guest
Thursday, November 18th
The North Shore Frogmen Present:
Barbara Warren and Niels Hobbs of Salem Sound Coastwatch will give an update on their research in Salem Sound with marine invasive species. Over the past summer, they have been working with Jay and Susan Michaud of Marblehead to investigate lobster trap fouling.
Closer to shore, their seven years of invasive species monitoring work continues with the help of many local volunteers, by conducting monthly surveys of floating docks and intertidal rocky shore sites all around the Sound. Barbara will talk about the sea squirt, Didemnum, and its extensive coverage of the Beverly Pier.
A newly arrived species of European shrimp never before been seen in North America, was discovered in Salem Harbor this summer at the Palmer Cove Yacht Club and Hawthorn Cove Marina docks. They will share this startling discovery!
Lecture starts @ 8pm after a brief business meeting. Social Hour starts @ 7 PM, Bar and grill is "Cash Only"
Event will be held at the Palmers Cove Yacht Club, 74 Leavitt St. Salem, MA 01970
