BoFEP Science Workshop Keynote Presentation

“Warming, ecosystem change, and fisheries in the Gulf of Maine:  from understanding to adaptation”

Dr. Katherine Mills is an associate research scientist at the Gulf of Maine Research Institute in Portland, Maine. As a quantitative fisheries ecologist, Kathy has studied ecosystem change and fish-ecosystem relationships in the Gulf of Maine region for over a decade.  Much of her work is interdisciplinary, seeking to understand and inform management of fisheries as coupled social-ecological systems.  Her recent work focuses on (1) understanding the potential impacts of environmental variability and climate change on marine resource populations and fisheries and (2) assessing climate adaptation strategies and providing information needed to advance adaptation planning in marine fisheries and fishing communities.
