University of Maine’s Marine Science Program
By Kelly Meinhart, Producer
recently ventured to Orono, Maine to take part in a weeklong media
fellowship through the University of Maine’s Marine Science
program. One of ten participants, I joined professional journalists
and media representatives to learn more about the Gulf of Maine, the
different fisheries, and the aquaculture businesses and practices
that are being incorporated there.
hile our journey began in Orono, which is near Bangor, we traveled
approximately an hour and a half south to the coast and then began
making our way up along the coast toward Bar Harbor and Acadia National
Park.
s you’ll see in the presentation, we learned a lot about science,
oceanography and aquaculture throughout the week via presentations,
on-site visits, and first hand encounters. For additional information
about my trip, you can also visit the Watersheds.tv website and click
on the Between Cattails feature which will air on June 15th. The feature
takes an extended look at the trip, and provides additional photos.
