As project leader for the Southeast Alaska region—essentially the entire state—Jan Rumble spends half the year 50 ft. underwater, diving up from five to ten times a day, one week on, one week off, observing the ocean floor. Rumble’s team conducts stock assessments for all three commercial dive fish species in Southeast Alaska: red sea urchins, sea cucumbers, and geoduck.
