Our research focuses on the human dimensions of marine systems and how social-ecological dynamics shape and are shaped by formal and informal institutions.
new seafood study-- what's happening with seafood at retail? (pre-pandemic) @LizNussbaumer @andrewtl @DocFroehlich @jagephart @sea_the_people @livablefuture and colleagues at U Florida https://www.tandfonline.com/eprint/T3NED5TY4P6CDVJPQKX7/full?target=10.1080/23308249.2021.1946481
We are hiring a Professor of Fisheries Science here at UMaine: https://umaine.hiretouch.com/job-details?jobID=68720&job=assistant-associate-or-professor-of-marine-sciences
There are very few places on earth where fisheries are more important to a region's culture and economy than Maine, please help us write the next chapter of fisheries in the Gulf of Maine
Research
We are broadly interested in questions about the design and maintenance of institutions (formal and informal) that support sustainable fisheries and the communities that depend on them. Towards this objective, we work on a range of interdisciplinary research projects related to ecosystem-based fisheries management, seafood distribution and trade, community resilience, risk, and adaptation, and aquaculture.

People
Our group is engaged in interdisciplinary and applied research related to sustainable fisheries, marine and coastal governance, food systems, and social-ecological dynamics. Our research is informed by real-world engagement with marine resource users, coastal community stakeholders, and policymakers. For this reason, much of our work is based in Maine, where opportunities for regular and ongoing collaboration is most possible. However, we also work in many other parts of the United States and abroad.
