NOAA scientists with AOML’s Physical Oceanography Division and the NMFS Southeast Fisheries Science Center partnered in a joint research cruise aboard the NOAA Ship Nancy Foster this past March-April 2007 to gather biological and physical oceanographic data from the coastal
waters of the Virgin Islands and surrounding region. Students and faculty from the University of the Virgin Islands also participated on the cruise. The collaborative research cruise was part of a new three year interdisciplinary research project aimed at examining how recruitment of larval reef fish in the VI and the surrounding area is affected by local oceanographic processes, and how the different shallow banks found in the northeastern Caribbean are ecologically linked via dispersal of these larvae.
