Northeast Fisheries Science Center

NOAA Logo

The Northeast Fisheries Science Center’s functions are carried out through the coordinated efforts of research facilities in Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Rhode Island. The Northeast Fisheries Science Center has conducted a comprehensive marine science program in the region since 1871. They study fishery species and fisheries, monitor and model ocean ecosystems, and provide reliable advice for policy makers. Their work promotes recovery and long-term sustainability of marine life in the region, supports both wild and cultured seafood harvests, helps sustain coastal communities, and generates economic opportunities and  benefits from the use of these resources.
