£8.4M has been awarded to the British Antarctic Survey and the Centre for Polar Observation and Modelling to deliver the next 5 years of their long-term polar science activities. The UK Polar Research Expertise for Science and Society (PRESCIENT) programme provides UK national capability (science, such as ongoing datasets and models, which underpins wider scientific research) to understand the impacts of environmental stressors, such as rising global temperatures on polar marine ecosystems. PRESCIENT will also measure and predict polar ice sheet contributions to global sea level rise and extend and improve measurements of changes to polar sea ice. The funding is part of £101 million investment by the NERC: Natural Environment Research Council, part of UK Research and Innovation, in the UK’s network of leading environmental science research centres to support large-scale environmental observations, modelling and analysis, and research capabilities through innovations in platforms, sensors and data science.

Research assistant professor Alexander “Sasha” Kholodov of the University of Alaska Fairbanks Geophysical Institute presented his work about the permafrost conditions around McGrath, Alaska, this morning on the first day of presentations at the International Conference on Permafrost. Watch the video to hear him talk about the work and the conference, which is underway in Whitehorse, the capital of Canada’s Yukon. Kholodov’s research involved creation of an automated remote sensing method to determine the state of permafrost around McGrath, a small community on the Kuskokwim River in the southwest of Interior Alaska. Knowing the status of permafrost is important for community planning purposes. Permafrost is defined in three categories: continuous, discontinuous and sporadic . Kholodov’s method of determining permafrost conditions is based on vegetation characteristics such as canopy coverage and forest stand density. The International Conference on Permafrost is held every four years, though this will be the first since the 2016 conference in Potsdam, Germany. The 2020 conference in China was canceled because of the COVID pandemic. About 20 University of Alaska Fairbanks scientists from these UAF units are at the conference: Geophysical Institute, Institute of Arctic Biology, International Arctic Research Center, Institute of Northern Engineering and UAF College of Natural Science and Mathematics. #icop2024 #permafrost #climate Canadian Permafrost Association

To understand the ocean's role in climate, ecosystems, and human activities, the EuroGO-SHIP project seeks to establish a new Research Infrastructure to provide higher quality and more sustainable data flows to a broad range of end users, more effectively. As part of this mission, the project aims to make shared facilities more accessible and fit-for-purpose. These shared facilities are resources and capabilities that can be accessed and used by the network of hydrographic observers, such as specialised analyses, reference materials (RM), training, software, best practices, and equipment. Shared facilities can foster collaboration, innovation, and standardization among the hydrographic community, as well as reduce costs and duplication of efforts. This concept paves the way for a more inclusive and democratic approach to hydrography, acknowledging the diverse economic landscapes across Europe. It ensures that countries with limited resources can also contribute to and benefit from the collective advancements in hydrographic science. If you are interested in learning about the pilot activities that EuroGO-SHIP has been in engaged in to test innovative models in support of shared facilities, please read our recently published report!

Updates from project CHASE! Portugal is now a member of the SOLAS (Surface Ocean - Lower Atmosphere Study) international community! Our participation in the SOLAS Scoping Workshop in Xiamen (China) as well as the most recent expedition that we did in the tropical Atlantic, earlier this year, were mentioned in a recent article published at national newspaper Público, featuring our recent study on the effects of Saharan dust in the North Atlantic.

If you're planning on being at ICARP IV - #ASSW 2025, in Boulder, Colorado in-person or virtually, consider submitting or coming to our session Brooks Kaiser (Deadline: extended until 9 October 2024 at 23:59 MDT!): https://lnkd.in/e5qw33gD 3. Understanding the dynamics and resilience of Arctic social-ecological systems to foster sustainable futures  # 3.1. Arctic Marine Research Agendas: Who writes the Saga? Arctic Scenario analysis frequently categorizes outcomes into four quadrants – along two axes: governance, and resources and trade. Of the four categories, Arctic Saga, Arctic Race, Polar Preserve, and Polar Lows, the first three reflect outcomes that favor different Arctic scales of interests, while Polar Lows is considered undesirable by most if not all stakeholders and rightsholders as providing neither local stability and quality of life nor global extractive benefits. Who’s “in” and who’s “out” in Arctic planning is a longstanding issue affecting within the marine realm, for example, Svalbard’s identity, the Arctic Council structure and its Working Groups (ie CAFF, PAME), the Polar Silk Road, and the Central Arctic Ocean fisheries policy. The challenge also impacts research agendas. In this multidisciplinary session, we discuss how agenda-setting in Arctic research priorities and funding strategies can affect these outcomes, with a particular focus on the role of academic research driven by actors not directly living or working in Arctic states. We anticipate differences in impact from the natural sciences and social sciences that stem from (1) scale of engagement in Arctic communities and environmental changes from local to global; (2) experience and expectations for transdisciplinary research and/or Indigenous engagement and inclusion needs, including longer research timelines and more diverse research outlets and forms; and (3) funding structures that limit such diversity as well as cross-scale research, amongst other distinctions along disciplinary lines. We illustrate with some background analysis of research communities in non-Arctic states, e.g. France, S. Korea, Japan and the UK.

🌟 DTO-BioFlow has been highlighted in the European Marine Board IVZW's Navigating the Future VI report! 🎉 This flagship publication explores the crucial role of the Ocean in the wider Earth system and promotes collaboration across disciplines to tackle global challenges like climate change and biodiversity loss. 🌍🌱 We are pleased to be mentioned as a key initiative working to bring biodiversity data into Digital Twin of the Ocean (DTO) repositories, helping to bridge critical knowledge gaps with advanced tools like AI and ecosystem modeling. This recognition underscores the impact of our efforts in enhancing data availability and integration for better ocean governance. 🌐🤝 Check out the report for more insights into how the Ocean is driving solutions for a sustainable future! 🐠🌿

Protecting the Ocean so that it continues to protect us - Europe’s leading Ocean scientists launch advice for governments Today we launch Navigating the Future VI (NFVI), a publication which provides governments, policymakers and funders with robust, independent scientific advice, focusing on the critical role the Ocean plays in the wider Earth system. Navigating the Future VI proposes the marine (natural and social) science research we need to help us address the challenges facing the planet, and with whom we need to collaborate to find solutions. It focuses on four main themes: #Ocean and #People, Ocean and #Climate, Ocean and #Freshwater and Ocean and #Biodiversity. NFVI provides research and policy recommendations and closes for each theme and closes by presenting cross-cutting requirements. NFVI was written by leading European Ocean scientists representing all EMB Member organisations (at kick off in 2022), spanning a wide range of backgrounds, disciplines and career levels. 🗣️ Join the conversation using #NFVIOcean #NFVIOcean #NavigatingTheFutureVI #OceanScience #MarinePolicy #Sustainability #ClimateAction #EuropeanMarineBoard Ifremer Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche Centre of Marine Sciences (CCMAR) Plymouth Marine Laboratory (PML) Kiel University DTU - Technical University of Denmark National Oceanography Centre Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi / Middle East Technical University Marine Institute GEOMAR Helmholtz-Zentrum für Ozeanforschung Kiel CNRS Stazione Zoologica Anton Dohrn Ruđer Bošković Institute Deltares NIOZ Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research Atlantic Technological University Institut za oceanografiju i ribarstvo University of Agder (UiA) Hellenic Centre for Marine Research University of Gothenburg Aix-Marseille University University of Liège Institute of Marine Research (IMR), Norway OGS
