Join the BNT for a public meeting to discuss the upcoming research being conducted  by Angie Doerr this summer focusing on lobster condo use in The Bahamas. Ms. Doerr will be conducting lobster –condo focused surveys in multiple communities throughout The Bahamas ( including Nassau, Spanish Wells, Andros and Long Island).


The use of Lobster Condos raises important research questions from an ecological perspective as well as a socioeconomic one.  There have been arguments that condos reduce environmental damage and may help to increase spiny lobster populations.  However, there has been little empirical research done to support these claims, and the research that has been done was conducted in areas outside of The Bahamas, where use practices may differ.
