Welcome to BOEM Science Notes. We hope to keep our community of stakeholders informed on our ongoing research as it is taking place in the field. Each issue of Science Notes will feature a BOEM study or other item of interest. As always, thank you for your continued interest in our programs.
The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) continues to engage stakeholders on the development of offshore renewable energy. One question that BOEM and stakeholders have raised is whether electromagnetic fields (EMF) from submerged power cables attract or repulse fish or invertebrates.
This month's Science Note presents new findings from the 2015 field season of the Arctic Marine Biodiversity Observing Network study, or AMBON.
