Habitat Ecology Branch

We study marine organisms and how they interact with their habitats and environments. Our research supports conservation, restoration, and management of fisheries habitats throughout the Southeast region.

Fish and Invertebrate Acoustics

We record the sounds produced by fish and invertebrates to study their spawning behaviors, locations, and potential threats.

Understanding the Health Of Long Island Sound's Oyster Beds

We are measuring the health of Long Island Sound’s oysters to guide restoration.

Passive Acoustic Research in the Northeast

We use passive acoustic technologies to study the behavior and movements of marine animals, their contribution to the ocean soundscape, and how they are affected by human-made sounds.
New England/Mid-Atlantic
This illustration shows the variety of technologies that NOAA Fisheries researchers use to record underwater sounds and study marine animals. The seascape shows bottom- mounted and drifting acoustic recorders, underwater autonomous vehicles, Atlantic cod and humpback whale with tags, and instruments deployed from a NOAA ship and small boat. Colored circles show a zoomed-in view of the instruments and indicate the type of data collected: green for real-time data, orange for archival data, and blue for active NOAA Fisheries studies marine animals by using a variety of technologies to record underwater sounds, including archival passive acoustic recordings (orange), real-time acoustic data collection (green), and active acoustics (blue).
