SUMMARY:SMMR-Net Webinar: "Language\, Story\, Values & You: 4 keys way to communicate"
DESCRIPTION:The Sustainable Management of UK Marine Resources (SMMR) Network is excited to host another free Lunchtime Webinar! This month Ian Rowlands\, director with Siren Calling\, a science and environment communication non-profit\, will give an insight into: \n__________ \nLanguage\, Story\, Values & You: 4 keys way to communicate\nWhen we talk about our science or our work\, the language we use can alienate\, confuse\, anger or bemuse those we communicate with; and often we never even know it’s happened. Our vocabulary is bonded to our own set of Basic Human Values\, but an understanding of this can transform the way we tell better science ‘stories’. This webinar will outline four key ways you might communicate with those you most wish to influence; whether that’s decision-makers\, funders\, colleagues or public audiences. \nInstructions: Please have something to write with at hand and some paper – including a blank sheet of A4 for the end. \n__________ \nIan is a former Guardian journalist who has led large-scale public events and conferences on ocean conservation and science. A director with Siren Calling\, a science and environment communication non-profit\, recently working with the National Oceanography Centre\, Sainsbury Laboratory Cambridge University\, DEFRA and others\, he is passionate about how we communicate about the natural world. \n  \nWatch the Recording on the SMMR You Tube Channel\n \n  \nThe Sustainable Management of UK Marine Resources (SMMR) Programme is funded by UKRI and addresses critical marine research gaps\, which span a variety of disciplines\, from natural capital to ocean literacy and systems-based management. The growing SMMR-Network offers regular Webinars and Trainings for the marine community\, aiming at connecting science and policy to improve management of the UK marine environment. \n

SUMMARY:SMMR-Net Webinar: "Clean Catch"
DESCRIPTION:The Sustainable Management of UK Marine Resources (SMMR) Network is excited to host another free Lunchtime Webinar! This month Chantal Lyons\, Bycatch Projects Lead at the communications consultancy Mindfully Wired\, will give an insight into: \n__________ \nClean Catch\nReducing bycatch of sensitive species in UK fisheries – including marine mammals\, seabirds\, sharks\, skates and rays – demands genuine collaboration with fishers and other actors from policy-makers to scientists to eNGOs. Clean Catch has sought to achieve this since its inception. The programme is now entering a new phase\, which will see it add a second bycatch mitigation trial to its portfolio and deliver a range of other outputs including knowledge exchange across and beyond the UK\, and locally-tailored and species-specific bycatch mitigation guides. In this webinar\, communications lead Chantal Lyons will explore Clean Catch’s future and how this will build on the lessons of the past. \n__________ \nChantal is Bycatch Projects Lead and part of the Science and Policy Team at Mindfully Wired\, a multi award-winning\, values-based communications consultancy. From supporting behaviour change and advocating for the environment to stakeholder engagement and inclusive\, evidence-based policy\, Mindfully Wired reaches a wide variety of audiences with their services. For more information please visit their Website. \nA Recording of this Webinar is available on the SMMR YouTube Channel\n  \nThe Sustainable Management of UK Marine Resources (SMMR) Programme is funded by UKRI and addresses critical marine research gaps\, which span a variety of disciplines\, from natural capital to ocean literacy and systems-based management. The growing SMMR-Network offers regular Webinars and Trainings for the marine community\, aiming at connecting science and policy to improve management of the UK marine environment. \n

SUMMARY:SMMR-Net Webinar: "Wading through the morass"
DESCRIPTION:The Sustainable Management of UK Marine Resources (SMMR) Network is excited to host another free Lunchtime Webinar! his month Professor Mike Elliott\, Emeritus Professor at the University of Hull\, will give an insight into: \n__________ \n“Wading through the morass” – Managing Marine Resources Sustainably\nDefining priorities for science and management for the sustainable use of marine resources\nThis brief overview will use information from recent publications and from ongoing projects to indicate the direction of research and advice in both natural and social marine sciences. It will reflect on the need for multidisciplinary research and show the way in which systems analysis can be used to tackle marine problems and allow the wise and sustainable use of marine areas. It will present ideas on footprints of activities\, pressures and effects on the natural and societal systems and also explain management response-footprints. This will encompass monitoring and assessment developments\, including cumulative effects\, maritime spatial planning and other conservation designations\, socio-ecological systems\, the assimilative and carrying capacities of seas\, and the valuation of biodiversity in ecological and socio-economic terms. It will also question how we know when marine management has succeeded. In this it will raise discussion related to the breadth of the SMMR and wider research activities. \nWatch a Recording of the Session on YouTube\n  \nMike is the Director of International Estuarine & Coastal Specialists (IECS) Ltd and also the Emeritus Professor of Estuarine and Coastal Sciences at the University of Hull\, UK. His wide teaching\, research\, advisory and consultancy interests include estuarine and marine ecology\, policy\, governance and management. Mike has published widely\, co-authoring/co-editing 21 books/proceedings and >350 scientific publications. He has advised on many environmental matters for academia\, industry\, government and statutory bodies worldwide and is a member of many national and international committees linking marine science to policy. Mike is a past-President of the international Estuarine & Coastal Sciences Association (ECSA) and is now Vice-Chair of Future Earth Coasts and a Co-Editor-in-Chief of the international journal Estuarine\, Coastal & Shelf Science; he currently is or has had Adjunct Professor and Research positions at several universities worldwide. \n \n  \nThe Sustainable Management of UK Marine Resources (SMMR) Programme is funded by UKRI and addresses critical marine research gaps\, which span a variety of disciplines\, from natural capital to ocean literacy and systems-based management.

SUMMARY:SMMR-Net Webinar: "Fluorescence and Phytoplankton"
DESCRIPTION:>>> Please find a Recording of this Session here\n  \nThe Sustainable Management of UK Marine Resources (SMMR) Network is excited to host another free Lunchtime Webinar! This month Fazeel Mohammed\, PhD at the University of Bedfordshire\, will give an insight into: \n“Fluorescence based methods in the monitoring of phytoplankton communities can aid in the management of Harmful Algal Bloom in Aquaculture”\nHarmful algal blooms pose significant challenges to aquaculture and fisheries resources\, causing substantial economic losses and potential food shortages. To address this issue\, a comprehensive approach that combines fluorescence spectroscopy with machine learning models can serve as a reliable solution to enhancing warning systems. This technology can proactively provide steps for the precise identification of harmful algae\, thereby providing an early warning system for aquaculture and ensuring its sustainable future. In this webinar\, we present our initial findings primarily based on literature review and secondary data together with a way forward to address this challenge. \n  \n \n  \nThe Sustainable Management of UK Marine Resources (SMMR) Programme is funded by UKRI and addresses critical marine research gaps\, which span a variety of disciplines\, from natural capital to ocean literacy and systems-based management. The growing SMMR-Network offers regular Webinars and Trainings for the marine community\, aiming at connecting science and policy to improve management of the UK marine environment. \n
