Recently in an effort to celebrate the 20 anniversary of the Stellwagon Bank National Marine Sanctuary (SBNMS), a program was held at the University of Massachusetts Advanced Technology and Manufacturing Center in Fall River Ma. The program was a collaboration between the Marine & Oceanographic Technology Network (MOTN), Marine Technology Society (MTS) and the USGS. The event was held to discuss current research efforts in the Sanctuary and how technology is being used to enhance results, as well as inform management decisions. Panelists presented snap shots of their research and industry representatives presented overviews of their technologies. The networking event also focused on possible collaborations.
