Can you help local marine biologist with her research?

Can you help a researcher explore the history of Manx seas?

Dr Fiona Gell is a local marine biologist and aims to explore historical sources to understand more about the Island's marine environment and inform its future management.

It comes as Dr Gell was the first recipient of the Corlett Bolton Research Award, which provided her with a grant towards her work.

She's looking for any photos or information on species and habitats such as basking sharks, oyster banks, horse mussel reefs, seagrass meadows, saltmarshes and flapper skate.
