Marine Ecology and Acoustics Lab

Welcome! We are the Marine Ecology & Acoustics Laboratory, led by Dr. Kevin Boswell on Florida International University's Biscayne Bay Campus. We focus on understanding the processes that mediate behavioral and distributional patterns in marine organsims.

We are excited to announce the Southeast Regional Acoustics Consortium (SEAC) Workshop for 2025. Please join us for oral presentations, practical exercises, and hands on demonstration in Panama City, FL during March 4th and 5th.

Meet our new PhD Student, Ian!
🌊🌴☀️
“Hi everyone my name is Ian Areford and I’m a first year PhD student in the Boswell Lab. I received my undergraduate degree in Biology from Saint Leo University where I conducted research on phenotypic plasticity in Mangroves in response to pore water nutrient concentrations. I then traveled down to Nova Southeastern University where I completed my masters in Marine Science. At NSU my thesis project focused on analyzing mesopelagic fish biomass patterns in the northern Gulf of Mexico in response to major oceanographic features. Through this project I discovered my interest in deep-sea fish and pelagic ecosystems in general. This is what ultimately drew me to the Boswell Lab where I hope to build upon my previous research through the use of active acoustics and other technologies. During my time in the Boswell Lab I will be assisting on a research project investigating the potential impact that pelagic organisms have on ocean mixing.

In addition, to my research on mangroves and the mesopelagic zone I also spent the previous summer working as a sea turtle specialist with the Broward County Sea Turtle Conservation Program where I completed morning surveys, responded to stranding, and preformed outreach events.”

Shout out to Aedan Mell for presenting his poster: “Exploring gear and observation bias in enumerating fish abundance and observing predator prey interactions using baited imaging sonar (BISON)” at the recent Nortek Symposium on our Biscayne Bay Campus.
🔊🐟 📷
“The main goal of my project was to compare 2 imaging sonars with drastically different fields of view to evaluate how many fish you might miss in terms of predator-prey interactions or abundance estimates using MaxN. I wanted to investigate if you detect more fish or interactions in the extreme margins of the sonar having an wider FOV (field of view) of 140° horizontal x 30° vertical compared to a sonar with a smaller FOV of 30° horizontal by 14° vertical.”
