🐋 There’s been a lot of debate over the impacts of offshore wind on whales and other marine mammals. Get the facts from #WHOI biologist Mark Baumgartner in the latest fact-checker from Oceanus Magazine: go.whoi.edu/windwhales

Did you know we age more than a thousand #StripedBass caught in MA each year? Now we have age data from nearly 8,000 fish and can calculate the average length of stripers between 1 and 30 years old. Use this chart to estimate how old your next catch is! mass.gov/info-details/learn-…
