The mission of the Alaska Fisheries Science Center is to generate the scientific information and analysis necessary for the conservation, management, and utilization of the region's living marine resources.
- Cameras can go where humans cannot and new fisheries research tools can save hundreds of hours in analyzing information contained in collected photographs.
