Oliver Shipley tracks sharks in the New York Bight. Host Heather Lynch and Shipley, an assistant professor in the School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences at Stony Brook University, discuss the use of isotopes in marine food web studies, shark population trends, the reasons behind the recent rise in shark sightings off Long Island, and the implications of offshore wind farms on marine species. Shipley provides insights into balancing environmental impacts and the integration of scientific research in effective marine conservation strategies.
