Beneath the Surface: Understanding Nature in the Mullica Valley Estuary

Dr. Kenneth Able, Distinguished Professor Emeritus in the Department of Marine and Coastal Sciences at Rutgers University, will provide an overview of his recent book, “Beneath the Surface”, focused on the Mullica Valley estuary and its watershed.

Participants will gain an improved understanding of the importance of these shallow waters, how the amount of salt in the water determines where animals and plants are found in estuaries, the day-night, seasonal, and annual variation in their occurrence, and how change is occurring as the result of climate variation and the associated influences on our fishing and aquaculture industries.
