    Episode 150 - Special Guest Chelsi Napoli

    Katlyn and Chelsi chat about east coast humpbacks! Chelsi Napoli is currently a PhD candidate at Stony Brook University in the Thorne Lab. In the lab, she studies the health and conservation of humpback whales in the New York Bight. She uses drone photogrammetry to assess body condition of New York Bight humpback whales inter-annually and across foraging grounds, and to model the growth relationship between body length and age. Additionally, she’s using AIS data to examine how the risk of vessel strike to humpback whales on the East Coast has changed in both space and time.
