The “baby boom” of ochre sea stars that followed a population crash a decade ago is enabling the species to recover on the Oregon Coast, according to new research by scientists at Oregon State University and Cal Poly San Luis Obispo.

Sarah Gravem was an OSU postdoctoral researcher when the project began 23 years ago. She's now an assistant professor at Cal Poly Obispo. Professor Gravem joins the Exchange.
