SUMMARY:Advances in Digital Aerial Surveying
DESCRIPTION:For over a decade\, Digital Aerial Surveys (DAS) have become the standard method to monitor seabirds and marine mammals around offshore wind farms and much beyond. They are fast and cost-efficient. By covering large areas in short time DAS are the best option for marine wildlife monitoring. While standardization and keeping the method constant is important\, technology is advancing. New sensors\, new platforms such as drones and new analytical tools by AI offer vast options to improve existing methods. As such\, HiDef Aerial Surveying\, BioConsult SH and Biotope as the leading providers of DAS based on HiDefs bespoke video system\, are advancing the techniques and analytical methods. How do these advances influence the quality of the data\, how do new surveys relate to existing data\, do ‘better’ surveys and possibly higher detection rates affect long-term data series? \nWe will address these questions in this webinar where we will outline how we are advancing our method for digital aerial surveying

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

SUMMARY:MEDIN webinar: An Introduction to Marine Data Stewardship and the MEDIN Framework
DESCRIPTION:This presentation provides an overview of marine data stewardship and introduces the MEDIN Framework as a foundation for best practice in marine data management. It outlines the principles of effective stewardship\, the importance of standardisation\, and how MEDIN supports the marine community in making data more discoverable\, accessible\, and reusable.

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:FITF Talks: Thoughts on a Floating Fishing School
DESCRIPTION:We will be joined by Andy Read\, former editor of Fishing News\, to host a discussion with fishermen\, fishing industry trainers\, organisers and naval architects on ideas around a dedicated fishing vessel for training and career development\, and how to make this happen. \nIt’s an ambitious idea\, but with the UK Government unveiling a £360 million Fishing and Coastal Growth Fund – it might be time to think big! Join us on to swap ideas\, hear case studies from places where training vessels operate\, and pitch in your thoughts on a dedicated fishing vessel for training and career development.
