Crabs in Crisis Again? Current and Future Challenges in Managing Blue Crab

Tuesday, October 18, 2022 from 7:00pm – 8:00pm

Presented by Dr. Tom Miller

The 2022 surveys for blue crab in the Chesapeake Bay continue to give cause for concern. In this lecture we will explore what we know about blue crab in the Chesapeake, what might be causing the patterns we observe and what we can do in response.

Learn about innovative research conducted by UMCES Chesapeake Biological Laboratory scientists!

Science for the Community seminars invite members of the public to discover how our scientists are developing new approaches to solving the environmental challenges facing Southern Maryland, our nation, and the world. All seminars are free of charge.

Our registration process has changed.

This fall, CBL will offer seminars in a hybrid format: you can choose to attend in person, or join via Zoom.

For the Fall 2022 series, we look forward to welcoming community members back to our campus for in person presentations. In person attendance is limited to 60 individuals and will require pre-registration. A “Register to Attend This Seminar In Person” button is provided underneath each seminar description below. You must submit a separate registration form for each seminar you plan to attend in person. We apologize for the inconvenience – this action is necessary to cap attendance at the 60-seat limit. You must use the Guest Fields on each registration form if you wish to reserve a second seat. A separate confirmation email, along with directions for in person attendance, will be sent to you for each seminar you register to attend. Attendees must present a printed or digital copy of their registration confirmation email when they arrive on campus to attend in person.
