On Tuesday, March 2 at 7 p.m., the University of Maine’s Darling Marine Center and Coastal Rivers Conservation Trust will host a panel discussion with Ian Cheney, director of the 2020 documentary, “The Long Coast.” Cheney will be joined by DMC Director Heather Leslie, Coastal Rivers Director of Education & Citizen Science Sara Gladu, and others from the community for a short discussion of the film and its insights into the changing environment and culture along the Maine coast.
“The Long Coast” is a series of lyrical portraits that illuminates the stories of Maine residents whose lives and livelihoods are inextricably connected to the ocean. It is an atmospheric film that shows the beauty, intimacy and uncertainty that coastal dwellers face when they root their lives in the ocean, particularly as human actions from overfishing, to aquaculture, to warming seas confront Maine and its people with pro

Baby lobsters may be more adaptable to rapidly changing ocean conditions than previously thought, according to results of a new study conducted in Maine.
A juvenile lobster is shown in Harpswell in 2015. A research team has examined how post-larval lobsters genes reacted to the effects of ocean warming, acidification and the combination of both.

Researchers from the University of Maine Darling Marine Center in Walpole, the Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences in East Boothbay and the Maine Department of Marine Resources in West Boothbay Harbor teamed up to examine the effects of ocean warming and acidification on gene expression in the earliest life stages of the American lobster.
A team of researchers from the University of Maine Darling Marine Center in Walpole, Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences in East Boothbay and Maine Department of Marine Resources in West Boothbay Harbor recently published their research on the effects of ocean warming and acidification on gene expression in the earliest life stages of the American lobster.
The work was published in the scientific journal Ecology and Evolution with collaborators from the University of Prince Edward Island and Dalhousie University in Canada.
Leading the study was recent UMaine graduate student Maura Niemisto, who received her masterâs degree in marine science. Co-authors on the journal article were her advisers Richard Wahle, research professor in UMaineâs School of Marine Sciences and director of the Lobster Institute, and David Fields, senior research scientist at Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences.
