SUMMARY:Online information event regarding Scottish Government's Strategic Compensation Policy for Offshore Wind
DESCRIPTION:The following event has been organised to support the public consultation on the Strategic Compensation Policy for Offshore Wind. \nThe consultation events are an opportunity to learn about the Scottish Government’s proposed Strategic Compensation Policy for Offshore Wind\, and conclusions from our impact assessments\, including\, Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) and partial Business and Regulatory Impact Assessment (BRIA). Officials will provide an overview of the policy and the assessments. This will be followed by time for questions\, to support attendees to provide their formal consultation responses

SUMMARY:MASTS Biogeochemistry Open Forum Session: Novel Tools for Air–Water Gas Exchange Monitoring
DESCRIPTION:The MASTS BioGeoChemistry (BGC) forum are pleased to host an open forum session with Dr. Sevda Norouzi (Postdoctoral Researcher\, Heriot-Watt University). \nAdvancing Carbon Flux Measurement with GETCO2 and Insi‑K: Novel Tools for Air–Water Gas Exchange Monitoring\nDr. Norouzi will introduce two cutting-edge instruments that significantly advance our ability to measure and understand CO₂ exchange: \n\nInsi K\, a field-deployable\, automated gas exchange analyser that delivers high-resolution\, continuous measurements of CO₂ concentrations in both air and water. Its combination of precision\, portability\, and affordability makes it especially valuable for deployment in remote or data-scarce regions.\nGETCO2\, a next-generation sealed gas exchange tank designed to provide a controlled environment for isolating and studying specific physical\, chemical\, and biological factors influencing gas exchange. It enables precise\, repeatable estimation of gas transfer velocities\, particularly in laboratory settings.\n\nTogether\, these tools form a robust\, flexible platform for probing how organic matter and other biogeochemical processes influence air–water gas exchange across a wide range of freshwater and marine systems. Whether used independently or in tandem\, Insi K and GETCO2 offer transformative capabilities that help close critical knowledge gaps in global carbon cycling\, climate regulation\, and the health of aquatic ecosystems.

SUMMARY:MASTS Open Forum Session "Developing a stunning system for decapod crustaceans"
DESCRIPTION:The MASTS Sustainable Aquaculture Forum is excited to host this free Open Forum Session with an interesting talk on: \n~\nDeveloping a stunning system for decapod crustaceans\nSpeaker: Dr. Niki Khan\, Lead Bioscientist\, Ace Aquatec \nSince 2022\, decapod crustaceans\, such as crabs\, lobsters\, and prawns\, have been recognised by UK legislation as ‘sentient beings’. Despite this\, there has been little movement on industry regulations\, and decapod crustaceans are often treated in extreme ways. For example\, most are killed by suffocation\, chilling\, or by boiling- methods that would be unthinkable for terrestrial species. \nChange is currently being driven by consumers\, and supermarkets have accepted this change in public attitudes with increasing bias towards producers that adopt welfare focused practices\, such as electrical stunning. For producers that adopt this practice shift there is increased market access. However\, the majority of decapod production originates from small-scale businesses\, and these producers risk being locked out of the global market due to the cost and access to electrical stunning equipment.\nLarge-scale electrical stunners exist\, and on the other end of the scale\, is the Crustastun\, where a single individual is stunned at a time. These are useful in very different scenarios; either large scale production\, or individual processing such as that seen in restaurants. However\, currently\, there are no ‘in between’ solutions- something that can stun more than one individual at a time\, but doesn’t require a multi-tonne throughput. \nHere\, I will discuss the development of a small scale\, portable\, in-water electrical stunner with a 20kg batch capacity. This would be a valuable opportunity to also discuss further practical applications of such a stunner\, as well as design considerations. \n~\nRegister Here!\n~\nImages: Unsplash
