Flyway assessments track how fast and where marine animals move between habitats across seasons. Baseline flyway assessments will allow the regional impact of offshore wind projects to be tested against other impacts, such as climate change. Rich regional telemetry, satellite tagging, and passive acoustic databases support these assessments.
David Secor is the Regents Professor at the Institute of Marine & Environmental Technology, University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science (UMCES). His research interests are in the areas of fisheries stock assessment/sustainable fisheries, fish habitat analysis, climate effects on fish distributions, and wind energy impacts. Dr. Secor’s research has had a significant impact on how species with management conflicts, such as bluefin tuna and striped bass, are managed in Chesapeake Bay and globally.
