A recent paper co-authored by MSC researcher Francis Choi and Professor Brian Helmuth is the result of an ongoing collaboration with colleagues in China, and explores the combined impacts of coastal armoring, warming temperatures, and shifts in ocean currents on the distribution of coastal invertebrates.

At VerdEnergia, farm systems are designed to match the specific natural characteristics of the ecosystem. These kinds of systems tend to be more self supporting than conventional agriculture.
