SHIPPING AND INVASIVE SPECIES

Nicolas Goodman

My interest in shipping stemmed from my photographic interest in the transportation industry. The vehicles that transport goods around the world are of fundamental importance to the way we live our lives. But so much goes on behind the scenes that is generally unseen by the public, which I hope to show through the medium of photography and film.

A comprehensive review of the issue of ship-mediated invasive species from the perspectives of ecology, policy, and technology. These three spheres came to characterize the pattern of my primary research and final product.
