Abstract
At the beginning of winter quarter 2022 I started my internship, and this internship was completed at the end of spring quarter of 2022. This internship was done with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA Fisheries). NOAA Fisheries are located across the United States, in areas such as Alaska and the Pacific Islands. My internship was done through the West Coast region, specifically working for the Northwest Fisheries Science Center. NOAA Fisheries goals include creating productive and sustainable fisheries, creating safe sources of seafood, recovering and conserving protected resources, and promoting healthy ecosystems. NOAA uses new sound science to support all these goals in order to have an “ecosystem-based approach to management”. Specifically in the West Coast region (Northwest Fisheries Science Center and Southwest Fisheries Science Center) NOAAs goals are to apply new and improving science to manage the natural marine sources here in the Pacific NorthWest in a sustainable way.
