   Episode 13: Happy Holidays from Fisherwomen

   Two exciting announcements: I recently had the great honor of appearing as a guest Jill Corey’s wonderful podcast, Water Women. And, I just had my very first peer-reviewed article published, in the latest issue of the Western North American Naturalist! I’m currently moving for a new job, hence the radio silence. But rest assured, I’m working behind the scenes on Fisherwomen whenever I can, and look forward to the return of Fisherwomen in 2022!Osborn, Katherine, Tim Mulligan, and Andre Buchheister. 2021.

   Episode 11: Sharks, Drones and Biomimicry with Sarah Hoffman

   In this episode I speak with Sarah Hoffman, a fisheries scientist with BioMark (https://www.biomark.com) in Boise, Idaho. We discuss her doctoral research on sharks off the Florida coast, and her current work at Biomark finding new research and conservation applications for drones and databases. Our creature feature continues the shark theme and follows up from where we left off last time in my episode with Susie Zagorski. Listen and learn why sharks are more warm-hearted than you might think!

   Episode 10: Susie Zagorski and a million tons of fish

   In this episode I speak with Susie Zagorski, who at the time of our conversation was Field Project Manager for the North Pacific Fisheries Research Foundation. We discuss her research to ensure the sustainability of the Alaska Pollock fishery, the largest fishery in the United States. Since our conversation, Susie has switched jobs and now works as a purser on C/P Starbound, a commercial Alaska pollock fishing vessel (C/P is for “catch/process” and denotes a ship that fishes for a species and processes that species onboard). Our creature feature this week is on swordfish and why they’re literally hotheaded.Submit a creature feature to be aired on the show!

   Pebble Mine and Bristol Bay with Sarah O'Neal

   In this week’s episode I’ll be speaking with Sarah O’Neal, PhD candidate at the University of Washington, about the impacts of the proposed Pebble Mine on Bristol Bay Sockeye Salmon. Update: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers determined on Monday, October 19 that, “the project as proposed cannot be permitted under the Clean Water Act.” According to the USACE announcement, the mitigation burdens for the proposed Pebble Mine had not been met, and USACE has given developers 90 days to return with a revised proposal. But we’re not in the clear yet. Listen and learn about this critical issue and why copper mines pose a particular threat to aquatic life and salmon specifically.
