NPRB Gulf of Alaska Project: Coastal Nurseries and Alaska's Groundfish

A major research project in the Gulf of Alaska is studying five commercially and ecologically important fish species and the environment that supports them. One part of the study investigates the near shore or coastal nursery areas for these fish. Join researcher Olav Ormseth in a beautiful bay in Southeast Alaska and learn how these nearshore areas are critical to the survival of some important fish and many other species.
