312 - Groundfish Trawls and Regional Framework Models with Keith Hankowsky

This week, Alanna chats with SMAST masters student Keith Hankowsky to discuss his work conducting groundfish trawl surveys in the southern New England wind farm area. They talk about developing regional framework models, the importance of learning a statistical programming language in modern fisheries science, and some of Keith's favorite groundfish. We hope you enjoy this episode!
