Monsters of Fish Habitat Workshop – Sunday, August 20 12:30-3:30PM

The 1980s “Monsters of Rock” tour brought together the best heavy metal bands in the world to play together. The Monsters of Fish Habitat Science workshop will bring together top scientists from around the country for an afternoon of mayhem, mirth, and majorly informative presentations on different aspects of fish habitat science. The eight Monsters will provide fascinating and fun mini-lectures on critical fish habitat science topics.
