Hello Everyone!

During today’s video conference, Dr. Semmens talked about a new element to this year’s Grouper Moon Project.  Researchers have noticed that each Nassau has a unique pattern on their face (just like us!). So, this year we are taking video of individual fish faces of the Nassau grouper on the aggregation.  They will then use facial recognition software to identify the different fish.  This new approach will allow scientists to track individual fish from one year to the next, which is pretty cool! Below are two different fish faces.  Can you tell the difference between the two?
