Sea Change: The Gulf of Maine

Peril in the Gulf of Maine

Cashes Ledge is a remote and relatively pristine part of the Gulf that is home to an unimaginable array of Marine life. Researchers are conducting a study of the area to gain a better understanding of how its cold waters, unique tides, and geological formations provide support for over 3,000 species, spanning from microscopic plankton to massive right whales.
