Diane Cowan of the Lobster Conservancy and Island Institute Fellow Dan O’Grady have continued to implant microwire tags in lobsters at Deep Cove on Friendship Long Island in Muscongus Bay. This season’s exceptionally low temperatures have limited tagging trips. Juvenile lobsters tend to lose limbs with alarming ease when the air temperature is below 201/4F. This year marks the fifth study year at Deep Cove, and is expected to yield important information on growth and movement patterns of juvenile lobsters in the wild. For information, call 207-832-8224.
