2. Environmental and Aquatic Animal Health

The Department of Environmental & Aquatic Animal Health identifies and detects toxicological, pathobiological and biochemical agents in the Chesapeake Bay and its watershed that affect the health of important aquatic organisms and surrounding human populations.

3. Ecotoxicology

Ecotoxicology is the extension of classic toxicology to include effects to ecological entities such as individual animals or plants, populations, communities, ecosystems, landscapes, and the entire biosphere. It is the science of contaminants in the biosphere and their effects on constituents of the biosphere, including humans.

4. Education

VIMS plays an important role in marine-science education for a wide variety of audiences and age levels.

5. Eastern Shore Laboratory

The Virginia Institute of Marine Sciences' Eastern Shore Laboratory (ESL) serves as both a field station in support of research and teaching and as a site for resident research in coastal ecology and aquaculture.

6. Ecosystem Modeling

Modeling is the process of building a mathematical abstraction of an actual system. The purpose in ecological modeling is often systems analysis, an approach that attempts to understand fundamental attributes of ecosystems with the goal of predicting behavior. Or a model could be purely descriptive, a way of discovering the mechanisms that explain the structure or behavior of an ecosystem.
