Guest: Y. Stacy Zhang, Postdoctoral Researcher, UNC Institute of Marine Sciences
Stacy Zhang is a postdoctoral researcher at UNC Institute of Marine Science. In the last decade alone, North Carolina has been impacted by over a dozen hurricanes that have caused substantial damage to human infrastructure, but what happens underwater? Are coastal fishes and habitats resistant to, or recovering from, these massive natural disturbances? And how will this play out in a global change scenario? Join us as Stacy examines whether fish catches and coastal habitats differ between hurricane years and years with no storms, from 2010–2020.
