  • Waste management is notoriously difficult on heavily populated islands. Perhaps this speaks to a greater issue of the world's love affair with over consumerism and wastefulness.

  • The Guajataca dam in northern Puerto Rico was severely damaged by the 2017 hurricanes. By all accounts it was very close to collapsing completely which would have flooded some 70,000 people. At the time, all 70,000 were advised to evacuate. Emergency repairs kept the worst from happening, but 10,000 residents and farmers have since struggled with water management.

  • Researchers stitch up a juvenile Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) after implanting a tag the fish off Newfoundland, Canada.
    20190513-501_0901.jpg
  • Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) off Newfoundland Canada were once one of the most caught and eaten fish in the world. In 1992 the fishery collapsed and nearly 40,000 people lost their jobs overnight. Juvenile cod and many other heavily fished species use seagrass as a nursery. The healthier the seagrass is, the better fisheries will likely be.

  • A fisherman's cage is pulled up by researchers. It is illegal to fish for Nassau grouper December - February in the Bahamas when this image was taken. Lack of enforcement is a common theme in Bahamian fisheries management. The scientists tagged and released the fish. It is part of an ongoing study to learn about the amazing phenomenon known as the grouper spawning aggregation. During the winter full moons the normally solitary grouper gather en masse to spawn at certain locations throughout the Caribbean and are especially vulnerable to over-fishing. Learning about these aggregations is of major importance to protect and manage the economically and culturally important fishery for these endangered fish.

    Spawning Aggregation
  • Heriberto Martir from the University of Puerto Rico's "Vida Marina" inspects his work. Wooden steaks from discarded pallets placed in a matrix change wind patterns to build up sand dunes along the north coast of Puerto Rico. "Vida Marina"  focuses on the management and ecological restoration and conservation of coastal ecosystems, endemic plants and marine turtle species. This project aims to restore sand dunes for coastal protection during storms, nesting sea turtles and other benefits. Image release available.

  • Heriberto Martir (right) and Luis D.
