Marine Operations
The NOAA Ship Reuben Lasker is a cutting-edge fisheries survey vessel, designed to support comprehensive marine research along the U.S. West Coast and in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean. Equipped with advanced technology, including multi-frequency scientific sonars and dynamic positioning systems, the ship enables scientists to conduct detailed studies on fish populations and collect vital oceanographic data with minimal disturbance to marine life.
Commissioned in 2014 and homeported in San Diego, the Reuben Lasker plays a crucial role in the missions of the Southwest Fisheries Science Center and Northwest Fisheries Science Center. Named after Dr. Reuben Lasker, a distinguished figure in marine research, the vessel exemplifies NOAA's commitment to the management and conservation of living marine resources, including fish, marine mammals, and turtles.
