Did you know that oyster reefs have a lot more to offer to the economy than tasty meals and the occasional pearl? How can the value of an aquatic ecosystem be measured? What is the value of conserving our natural resources? Dive into this discussion with Matthew Richardson, a Ph.D. Student in the Department of Wildlife Ecology and Conservation at the University of Florida. Matthew used machine learning during his masters on wetlands and rivers and will be applying AI to the water quality portion of his dissertation on oyster restoration. Hosted by Fisheries & Aquatic Sciences Graduate Student, Bethany Gaffey, this conversation is sure to teach you something new about the natural world and how we relate to it. This episode was made in partnership with UF’s Department of Agricultural Education and Communication, the UF|IFAS Dean of Research Office, and UF’s AI Strategic Initiative.
