Hidden paths beneath the waves: How the open ocean shapes coastal waters

Although the open ocean may seem far away, it plays a powerful role in shaping our coastal ecosystems. In an interview-style conversation during Evening at Skidaway, Dr. Lukas Taenzer, a post-doctoral researcher in SkIO faculty member Dr. Nick Foukal’s lab, explores the connections between offshore and coastal waters, addressing questions such as: What separates the open ocean from the coast? How do offshore waters reach our shorelines and estuaries? And how do changes in the open ocean affect fisheries and coastal ecosystems?
