Bioinvasion
MPBN: Quest Series, Moving Image, 00:58:03

As human activity silently globalizes our world, our modern day ecology is under onslaught from spreading alien organisms. These plants and animals are capable of moving aggressively into a habitat and monopolizing resources to the detriment of other species. Can scientists help us win the war against this bio-invasion?

Bodies In Motion: The Biomechanics of Sports
MPBN: Quest Series, Moving Image, 0:54:36

Using athletics, QUEST takes a fresh look at the way our bodies move. Bridging the gap between research and the playing field, coaches, trainers and athletes themselves discover how to optimize performance and what to do when injury causes that performance to fail.

Gulf of Maine
MPBN: Quest Series, Moving Image

As QUEST takes us into the Gulf of Maine, we see a dynamic web of life, not as an extension of our world, but as its own ecosystem. What is going on down there? Can more be done?

How To Manage-Gulf of Maine
MPBN: Quest Series, Moving Image, 0:02:00

The National Marine Fisheries Service has a plan to increase the abundance of fish by a factor of three in the Gulf of Maine and George’s Bank. Reducing overfishing is good for both conservation and economics.
