Dr. Shannon Bayse’s research focuses on understanding how intrinsic (condition, motivation) and extrinsic (temperature) factors affect fish behavior. Often this work focuses on fish swimming, how temperature affects fish behavior and physiology, and frequently this work is applied to improve the selectivity of fishing gears. His research includes laboratory studies that measure fish swimming capacity and energetics in swimming tubes, and offshore work testing new fishing gears on commercial vessels.
Prior to his position within the Centre for Sustainable Aquatic Resources, Shannon was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and US Geological Survey. He holds a PhD in Marine Science and Technology from the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth.
Dr. Bayse is currently supervising students in the MSc and PhD program. To inquire on future opportunities, you may contact Dr. Bayse directly.
