Scott has worked in fisheries research and assessment for over 16 years. He specializes in hydroacoustic technology and data analyses. Scott has advanced training in hydroacoustic analyses using Echoview® software.

Scott‘s graduate thesis at the University of Toronto was on the foraging and spatial ecology of schooling fish and focused on the integration of hydroacoustic technology with traditional fish sampling techniques. In addition to working for academic institutions and resource consulting compaines, Scott has many years of experience as a fisheries and stock assessment biologist for the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources. He has presented his work at professional meetings and conferences including the ICES Acoustic Working Group, Canadian Conference for Fisheries Research, annual meeting of the American Fisheries Society, and at the Institute of Marine Research in Bergen, Norway. Scott has been involved with many international groups and committees including the Great Lakes Fishery Commission’s hydroacoustic and fisheries management technical committees. Scott also led the hydroacoustic component of the GLFC’s “Emerging Technologies in Fisheries Science”, a workshop designed to introduce new fisheries technology to biologists, managers, and industry representatives from across the U.S. and Canada.
