Knauss legislative fellowships in Congress help build careers — and they're fun and educational. See our video and fact sheet for details.
Research Publications
Maryland Sea Grant has funded scientific research relevant to the Chesapeake Bay and the Maryland residents who conserve, enjoy, and make their living from it.
The funded projects advance scientific knowledge through the publication of peer-reviewed journal articles. You may search these publications by keyword and year of publication.
Publications prior to 2003 can be accessed through the National Sea Grant Library.

Featured Research Project
Interstate Blue Crab Transportation and the Risk of Iintroducing Novel Viruses into the Chesapeake Bay Crab Fishery
Callinectes sapidus supports the most valuable commercial fishery in the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries. Nationally, the average total dockside value of blue crab fisheries in Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, Florida, Louisiana and Texas approaches $200 million. Interstate live blue crab transport has increased due to seasonal cycles of crab landings in the Chesapeake regions and changes in allocation of immigration permits for guest workers.
