The symposium runs through Friday.
ANCHORAGE, Alaska - The Alaska Marine Science Symposium is an event where those invested in Alaska’s coastal habitats can all gather and discuss pressing issues in their fields.“It’s a really great way to showcase marine science of all kinds,” North Pacific Research Board Science Director Matthew Baker said.
“One of the benefits of this type of conference — it’s one big plenary, everyone’s hearing the same talks, and it fosters a lot of exchange that might not otherwise occur,” Baker said. “A state like Alaska, it’s so huge, you know, you can really easily kind of do your own thing in your corner of Alaska, but really, everything’s connected in the oceans,” Farrugia said.
