WASHINGTON, July 24 -- The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration issued the following news:
Scientists demonstrate that an innovative technology to scan fish otoliths (ear stones) coupled with trained computer models can determine rockfish ages as well as humans, and even more quickly.
This technology, Fourier-transform near-infrared spectroscopy, examines the unique vibrations of molecules in otoliths, especially the way they absorb near-infrared light, to g . . .
