Rachel is currently working on a collaborative project between the Prince William Sound Science Center and Â黨ÊÓƵ Department of Fish and Game to 1) develop a workflow for high throughput digitization of scale image archives used for age estimation and 2) leverage this digitized archive to investigate the application of machine vision technologies to automate sockeye salmon scale age estimation.
