SUMMARY:The Invasive Green Crab in Nantucket Sound and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:Join the Alliance as they host their popular ACONS (A Celebration of Nantucket Sound) webinar series. This episode will provide a fascinating look at one of the most disruptive and resilient invasive species in our coastal waters: the green crab. Marine biologist Carolyn Tepolt of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution will guide us through the story of the green crab invasion on the East Coast\, including its growing presence in Nantucket Sound and areas south of Cape Cod.\n\nCarolyn will share insight from her lab's cutting-edge research into the genetics and temperature tolerance of these crabs two key reasons why they've been so successful in new environments. She'll also offer a compelling comparison to her work on the West Coast\, where the green crab's arrival is more recent and research and management efforts are rapidly evolving.\n\nWhether you're curious about marine ecosystems\, invasive species\, or how climate and genetics shape our waters\, this free webinar is not to be missed.\n\n\n\nMore on the Alliance and the ACONS webinar series at www.saveoursound.org/acons.\n\n\n\nABOUT CAROLYN TEPOLT:\n\nCarolyn was born and raised in southern New Hampshire and became fascinated by coastal marine species while exploring the shores of New England growing up. She joined the WHOI Biology department in March of 2017\, after postdoctoral research in biodiversity genomics at the Smithsonian Institution. In 2014\, she received a PhD from Stanford\, where she studied at the Hopkins Marine Station on Monterey Bay. Her research program is focused on understanding how marine species adapt to changing environments on time scales of decades to centuries. She works extensively with marine invasive species\, and integrates approaches from genomics\, ecology\, and physiology.
