When you reach for that packet of imported, farmed shrimp at Costco, you might not realize that the seafood’s sustainability certification relies, in part, on a longtime research project at Clark University. Since 2013, Clark geospatial scientists have used GIS, satellite imagery, and machine learning technology to produce landcover maps indicating where brackish pond aquaculture — human-made seafood production “farms” — may encroach on tropical mangrove habitats and coastal wetlands. The maps have been used by nonprofit organizations, including the World Wildlife Fund, the ASC - Aquaculture Stewardship Council, Seafood Watch, and Trase, to help consumers and businesses better understand which countries are abiding by sustainable seafood practices.
