SUMMARY:EMB webinar - Deep-sea knowledge for effective Ocean management
DESCRIPTION:Despite its immense ecological importance\, the deep sea remains underrepresented in policy considerations and global conservation efforts. With 90% of ocean species undescribed and many natural functions poorly understood\, the deep sea faces significant threats from unsustainable resource exploitation and climate change. Europe has a pivotal role to play in leading international measures to protect and manage the deep sea. While the EU’s International Ocean Governance Agenda and Biodiversity Strategy already emphasize marine biodiversity protection\, there is an urgent need to translate these agendas into action\, particularly concerning the deep sea. \nDuring this webinar\, EMB will launch its Future Science Brief No 12\, titled ‘Deep Sea Research and Management Needs’. This brief addresses the critical need to increase our knowledge on the deep sea\, an often-overlooked yet vital component of our global ecosystem and climate regulation. Effective management of this environment require a robust scientific foundation and international cooperation. Science-policy communication and transdisciplinary research will be crucial in the sustainable use of the deep sea\, particularly as the BBNJ Agreement Conference of Parties (COPs) unfolds.

SUMMARY:SUPERGEN Webinar - The use of Dynamic Bayesian Network Modelling for the Spatial and Temporal Understanding of Marine Ecosystem Dynamics
DESCRIPTION:Chaired by: Dr Neda Trifonova\, University of Aberdeen\, who will discuss the use of machine learning techniques to understand the ecosystem-level effects at regional and shelf-wide scales following the deployment of large-scale offshore wind and under alternative fishing and climate change scenarios. Bayesian ecosystem models will be discussed with a focus on how they can be used to predict the cumulative effects on the population trends across a range of species and to link these outputs to changes in ecosystem services and natural capital to assess the environmental and socio-economic benefits and trade-offs.

SUMMARY:SEER Webinar: Oceanographic Responses to Offshore Wind: From First Principles to Potential Effects
DESCRIPTION:The U.S. Offshore Wind Synthesis of Environmental Effects Research (SEER) effort (https://tethys.pnnl.gov/seer)\, led by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) with support from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Wind Energy Technologies Office\, is continuing its free\, public webinar series to share the latest research on the potential environmental effects of offshore wind energy development.  Changes in atmospheric and oceanographic conditions can influence physical and biological processes such as sediment and nutrient transport\, primary productivity\, and marine food web dynamics. This webinar will provide a background on oceanographic systems to describe potential interactions between atmospheric and oceanographic processes and offshore wind energy infrastructure (e.g.\, foundations\, turbines). The webinar will then explore how potential shifts in the ocean’s physical environment associated with wind energy infrastructure could affect primary productivity\, marine food webs\, and marine animals. The speakers will describe the models and methods used to study interactions between oceanographic processes and offshore wind\, highlighting studies from Europe and the United States. \nSpeakers: \n\nDr. Beth Scott\, University of Aberdeen\nDr. Eileen Hofmann\, Old Dominion University\nDr. Kaus Raghukumar\, Integral Consulting\n\nEach webinar will feature brief presentations from experts\, a panel discussion\, and an audience question and answer period. All webinar recordings will be made available on Tethys (https://tethys.pnnl.gov) and emailed to registrants. \n  \nRegister here.
