Working with fish spawning aggregations (FSAs)? Come join this interactive session to learn what has been learned from FSA studies in the past, what remains to be learned, and what tools we need to accomplish this.
In this session we ask participants to give rapid (2 minute) presentations related to their FSA work – what have they done? and what do they want to do?
Then we will have 2 discussion sessions centered around the following questions:
(1) What are the interesting questions associated with aggregations beyond the when, where?
(2) How many questions can we answer with basic monitoring and what are the technological needs for other questions?
