Join our webinar to learn about recent studies on sea otter activity and their interactions with mariculture operations. Based on field observations, Emily Reynolds will share insights into foraging behavior, habitat use, and the potential impacts of sea otters in aquaculture and mariculture settings. The presentation will examine the role of sea otters as keystone predators and their influence on evolving coastal economies, particularly in Alaska.
Emily Reynolds is an Alaska Sea Grant State Fellow with NOAA’s Aquaculture Program, where she works on projects related to seaweed farming and spatial mapping of kelp resources. She earned her M.S. in Marine Biology from the University of Alaska Fairbanks, where her thesis research examined sea otter activity and foraging behavior in and around oyster farms.
