Sheridan Rabbitt is the Station Assistant at Moreton Bay Research station, where she gets to introduce hundreds of young people to the wonders of Moreton Bay. But she also conducts research of her own, and we talked about two of her studies. The first is about seahorses and pipefish in Moreton Bay, and why we have to watch the seaweed very carefully! And the  second, fascinating study is about women in small scale fisheries in the Pacific, and how management misses the boat when they don't consider their catch and their expertise. How might this be reflected in Moreton Bay? Sheridan explains, and I'd love to hear your thoughts, so send me a message!
