Students at Florida Colleges & Universities Announced as The Inaugural 2024 Guy Harvey Fellowship Recipients


In a dedicated effort to protect coastal and marine habitats and species, the Guy Harvey Foundation (GHF) collaborates with local, national, and international organizations to conduct scientific research and fund affiliated researchers who share their commitment to ocean conservation. One of GHF’s key initiatives involves recognizing graduate students and graduate program candidates across Florida colleges and universities who conduct research that will help support the sustainable management of marine fish.
To that end, the Guy Harvey Fellowship, formerly the Guy Harvey Scholarship Award, in partnership with the GHF and Florida Sea Grant, selects up to eight outstanding scholars to each receive a $5,000 research stipend and the opportunity to share their work with the greater Sea Grant network through Florida Sea Grant’s Communications Team. Award recipients are expected to share their progress, including participating at public and scientific events to improve their science communication skills.
The 2024 Guy Harvey Fellowship recipients are:
- Zeke Tuszynski and Sarah F. Webb from Florida Atlantic University
- Susannah Cogburn from Florida Gulf Coast University
- William Sample from Florida International University
- Annais Muschett-Bonilla from Florida State University
- Eric Bovee from the University of Florida
- John Francis Hlavin from the University of Miami
- Alexis Mitchem from the University of South Florida, St. Petersburg
Established in 2010, the partnership between Florida Sea Grant and the Guy Harvey Foundation has provided scholarships totaling $439,000 to support the research of 90 students at 12 different Florida universities. This fellowship not only bolsters academic research but also strengthens the connection between Florida Sea Grant and the next generation of marine scientists.
“We worked with the Guy Harvey Foundation to establish a fellowship program to create a cohort of student researchers that will not only help to support and enhance the development of their academic research but also strengthen Florida Sea Grant’s connection with the next generation of Florida’s marine and coastal scientists,” says Dr. Sherry Larkin, Director of Florida Sea Grant. “We’re hoping this fellowship provides the opportunity for recipients to engage and share their research with the greater Sea Grant Network.”
In addition to financial support, each fellowship recipient receives a certificate personally designed and signed by Dr. Guy Harvey, world-renowned marine wildlife artist, conservationist and GHF Founder/Chair Emeritus.
“Our commitment to funding and helping pave the way for young scholars to become the next wave of ocean conservation stewards is vital to the Guy Harvey Foundation’s mission,” said Dr. Harvey. “Highlighting the extraordinary research these students have undertaken and rewarding their hard work highlights the importance of keeping the ecosystem of our oceans healthy and the scientific community motivated.”
Applications for the 2025 Guy Harvey Fellowship will open later this year. Stay informed about eligibility criteria and deadlines at www.flseagrant.org/student-opportunities/ or contact Florida Sea Grant Student Programs Coordinator, Cassandra Sexson, at students@flseagrant.org.
Meet the 2024 Guy Harvey Fellowship Recipients

Zeke Tuszynski is a graduate student from Wenatchee, Washington, pursuing a master’s degree in biological sciences at Florida Atlantic University. His research focuses on studying the migration patterns of Blacktip sharks along the east coast of the U.S. Taking advantage of the large gatherings of Blacktip sharks in Southeast Florida during winter, the research aims to investigate the extent of their northward migration along the U.S. eastern seaboard using satellite transmitters and the environmental factors influencing their movement.
Given the Near Threatened Species status of Blacktip sharks, understanding their habitat use and migratory patterns becomes crucial for management and conservation efforts.

Sarah F. Webb is a Ph.D. candidate from Milltown, New Jersey, studying integrative biology at Florida Atlantic University. Her research focuses on evaluating estuary conditions, such as salinity, and their impacts on fish movements and behaviours. She examines the potential resurgence of nursery habitat in the St. Lucie Estuary for the endangered smalltooth sawfish, a species historically found in the area. Webb’s dissertation utilizes extensive fish and water quality monitoring to provide essential insights into the effects of these stressors, such as excessive freshwater inflow, on various fish species, including various estuarine-dependent sportfish, juvenile goliath grouper and juvenile smalltooth sawfish.
Webb’s work is crucial for resource managers seeking to better understand the dynamics of this unique ecosystem, which is part of the northern Everglades component of the RECOVER program. Understanding how these animals respond spatially to these inputs is vital for species conservation and predicting the impacts of water management decisions on marine populations.

Susannah Cogburn is a master’s student from Winter Garden, Florida, studying environmental science at Florida Gulf Coast University. Her research focuses on the bioaccumulation of contaminants, such as heavy metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in bull sharks, Carcharhinus leucas. Sharks are apex predators, so contaminant levels are likely high in their tissues, especially in species, such as C. leucas, which spend a portion of their life in estuaries with high contaminant loads.
The results of this research will have direct fisheries impacts by helping to quantify pollutants and their persistence within our local fisheries stock. The bull sharks will also act as a proxy for other marine fishes to identify if the pollutants are present and the direct effect on their osmoregulation – the process of maintaining salt and water balance within the body.

William Sample is a Ph.D. candidate from Jacksonville, Florida, studying biology at Florida International University in Miami. His research focuses on how environmental factors influence juvenile bull shark habitat use and foraging ecology in the coastal Everglades. Sample’s study aims to focus on the energy landscapes sharks encounter, how they change over time and space and how sharks adapt to them.
Given the challenges sharks are likely to face from climate change and sea level rise, Sample’s work will be important for the conservation of juvenile sharks and their habitats and in informing restoration and management efforts. By using historical data from more than 150 tagged bull sharks and new methods such as high-resolution accelerometry, he aims to provide insights applicable beyond his study area.

Annais Muschett-Bonilla is a Ph.D. student from Houston, Texas, studying biological sciences, with a focus on ecology and evolution at Florida State University. Her research focuses on the maternal reproduction of elasmobranch fish, which includes sharks, rays, skates and sawfish. These fish have various ways of nourishing their embryos, and each method has different physiological and energetic demands of the mother. Annais’s research seeks to quantify the effects of reproductive energetic demands on the performance of pregnant elasmobranchs, particularly in mature female Hypanus Sabinus – a type of stingray – and possible influences on maternal survival.
Given their slow repopulation rates and diverse embryo nourishment strategies, understanding and prioritizing species with similar reproductive strategies are crucial for efficiently managing and conserving elasmobranch species and safeguarding their diversity.

Eric Bovee is a graduate student from Queens, New York, pursuing a master’s degree in fisheries and aquatic sciences at the University of Florida. His research focuses on tagging and tracking the Gray Snapper (Mangrove Snapper), a species found in spawning aggregations located 80 to 100 miles offshore in the Florida Middle Grounds. Engaging in extensive fieldwork, he tags the fish during their offshore presence and subsequently collaborates with fishers to recover valuable information about the fish, including their recovery locations. Bovee’s research is all about using dispersal modeling to predict where Gray Snapper eggs and larvae go after they’re spawned in the ocean.
This is important because too much fishing in these spawning areas can be harmful. By figuring out where the larvae end up, Bovee can help scientists understand the connectivity between the offshore spawning areas and the coastal areas where they live and grow up.

John Francis Hlavin is a Ph.D. student from Vienna, Virginia, studying environmental science and policy at the University of Miami. His research focuses on the importance of various ecological dynamics to the management of nursery areas for coastal predatory fish. He is particularly interested in using minimally invasive techniques to study the ecology of juvenile great hammerhead sharks within Biscayne Bay – an identified great hammerhead nursery – to better understand how patterns of resource and habitat-use can inform the conservation of this critically endangered species at a highly vulnerable life-stage.
Additionally, Hlavin has projects looking at the trophic ecology of the understudied Atlantic guitarfish and the potential impact of invasive lionfish on nursery habitat use in Great Barracuda. By studying these high-priority species and their interactions, his work helps scientists to better manage local ecosystems for the conservation of South Florida’s predatory fish.

Alexis Mitchem is a Ph.D. student from Pensacola, Florida, studying marine science at the University of South Florida. Her research focuses on DNA barcoding to identify fish eggs and efforts to make molecular research tools more accessible and affordable. Accurate identification of the early life stages of fish is critical for conservation biology. However, eggs are challenging to identify due to a lack of distinguishing morphological features. Her research project involves using DNA barcoding – a tool used for species identification based on specific genes – to identify fish eggs down to the species level.
Building on 10 years of fish spawning data during the summer season on the West Florida Shelf, Mitchem plans to expand sample collection to cover all seasons over several years to determine when other important fish species are spawning and will team up with a physical oceanographer to model egg movement by surface currents.

National Geographic Reveals Trailer for Groundbreaking Natural History Series QUEENS, Narrated by Angela Bassett
National Geographic today revealed the breathtaking new trailer for the female-led docu-series QUEENS, premiering March 4 on National Geographic and streaming on Disney+ and Hulu the next day. Set to Billie Eilish’s hit electropop track “You Should See Me in a Crown,” the trailer introduces viewers to six iconic worlds ruled by the fierce and formidable matriarchs of the animal QUEENdom, setting the stage for a series that transcends everything viewers know about natural history programming.




Helmed by a female-led production team from around the world — groundbreaking in the natural history space — and guided by powerful narration from award-winning actress Angela Bassett (“Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,” “The Flood,” “Good Night Oppy”), QUEENS is bringing the natural world into focus through the female lens for the very first time. The series features matriarchies and female leaders from around the world to tell stories of sacrifice and resilience but also friendship and love. Each episode showcases matriarchs, from the peace-loving bonobos of the Congo basin to the ruthless jewel bees of Costa Rica to the powerful elephants of the Savanna. Through watching their struggles, successes and heartbreaks, we see the importance of intergenerational love and protection, the fierce lengths a mother will go to to have her children succeed, how the thirst for power can rip families apart, and how even in the face of tragedy, a mother must selflessly persevere.

Four years in the making, QUEENS leverages cutting-edge technology to reveal surprising insights into how females in the natural world rise to power, often relying on cooperation and wisdom over brute strength to get ahead. The intimate production captured many staggering moments within the animal kingdom for the first time, including rarely seen hyena infanticide, the first filming of bonobos in the canopy from tree platforms, colour documentation of the Ngorongoro Crater through the night, and a development time-lapse of the Orchid bee brood. The final episode of the series celebrates the women who have gone to the ends of the Earth and dedicated their lives to documenting and protecting animal queens.
QUEENS is produced by Wildstar Films for National Geographic. For Wildstar Films, Vanessa Berlowitz is the executive producer, and Chloe Sarosh serves as showrunner and writer. Sophie Darlington and Justine Evans are the series’ directors of photography. For National Geographic, Pamela Caragol is the executive producer, and Janet Han Vissering is the senior vice president of Development and Production.

FEATURE DESTINATION: Experience Hội An Through Responsible Travel
In the verdant heart of Central Vietnam, the ancient city of Hội An, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, emerges as a vanguard of sustainability and responsible tourism. This evolution marks a pivotal chapter in the narrative of Quang Nam province, which has embraced eco-friendly travel practices. This shift resonates with a global trend towards minimizing environmental impacts and bolstering local communities through tourism, reflecting a profound transformation in the travel and hospitality industries worldwide towards more ethical and sustainable models.

The concept of ecotourism, central to this transformation, aims at safeguarding natural environments while simultaneously upholding and nurturing local cultures. This approach has become increasingly popular in Quang Nam, fostering a tourism model that offers visitors immersive experiences in the province’s natural parks, mountains, and marine areas, with a minimal ecological footprint. These initiatives not only promote the conservation of the region’s rich biodiversity but also enrich local communities economically by diverting tourism revenues directly into conservation and cultural preservation efforts.
Quang Nam’s commitment to sustainable tourism is evidenced by its innovative community-based tourism projects. These projects, ranging from organic farms to traditional artisan villages, offer travellers authentic cultural experiences while supporting sustainable livelihoods. For instance, visitors to the region can learn about organic farming techniques that use natural fertilizers instead of chemicals, or witness the skilful craftsmanship of local artisans. Such experiences not only contribute to the preservation of traditional practices but also foster a deeper appreciation and understanding of local cultures.
The province’s natural reserves and ecovillages play a crucial role in biodiversity conservation. These areas serve as sanctuaries for various species, including some that are endangered, thus contributing significantly to the region’s ecological diversity. Quang Nam’s natural landscapes are home to a plethora of flora and fauna, offering unique opportunities for education and conservation. The emphasis on protecting these natural habitats aligns with the principles of ecotourism, ensuring that tourism activities do not jeopardize the delicate balance of these ecosystems.

The Bay Mau Nipa Palm Forest and the Song Thanh Nature Reserve are prime examples of Quang Nam’s commitment to environmental stewardship. These areas not only act as critical carbon sinks but also function as natural laboratories where visitors can engage with conservation efforts firsthand. Moreover, the Cu Lao Cham World Biosphere Reserve stands as a testament to successful human-nature cohabitation. Recognized by UNESCO, this reserve showcases diverse ecosystems ranging from tropical forests to coral reefs, providing habitats for numerous species while promoting sustainable tourism practices that contribute to the conservation of these natural resources.
The sustainable tourism model adopted by Hội An and Quang Nam emphasizes the synergy between environmental protection and cultural preservation. This model encourages the development of tourism practices that are not only economically beneficial but also sensitive to the ecological and cultural fabric of the region. Through initiatives such as waste reduction, support for organic farming, and the promotion of traditional crafts, this model illustrates how tourism can play a pivotal role in sustainable development.
Collaboration between local communities, government entities, and non-profit organizations is key to the success of Hội An’s sustainable tourism initiatives. These partnerships facilitate a range of activities, from waste management programs to educational projects, aimed at fostering environmental awareness and sustainable living practices among both locals and visitors. Such collaborative efforts underscore the importance of community engagement in achieving the goals of sustainable tourism.
The unique biodiversity of Quang Nam, encompassing a wide array of habitats from coastal ecosystems to mountainous rainforests, is a critical component of the region’s ecotourism appeal. The area is home to species such as the critically endangered saola (Pseudoryx nghetinhensis), the giant muntjac (Muntiacus Vuquangensis), and various primates, which rely on the intactness of their natural habitats for survival. Efforts to preserve these environments not only aid in the protection of these species but also enhance the ecological integrity of the region as a whole.
In crafting a sustainable tourism model, Quang Nam and Hội An have demonstrated that it is possible to harmonize the needs of economic development with environmental preservation and cultural integrity. This model serves as a blueprint for other destinations seeking to navigate the complexities of modern tourism. It proves that through mindful planning and collective action, tourism can be transformed into a force for good, capable of protecting natural and cultural heritage for future generations.
As the world continues to grapple with the challenges of environmental degradation and cultural erosion, the example set by Hội An and Quang Nam offers hope and inspiration. It showcases the potential of sustainable tourism to foster a deeper connection between people and the planet, promoting a more thoughtful and respectful way to explore the wonders of our world. The journey of Hội An from a historic port city to a leader in sustainable tourism is a testament to the power of vision, commitment, and collaboration in creating a more sustainable and equitable future.
