In this final episode of Wave Makers Tamara Kahn announces her transition to fulltime with Seaworthy Collective where she directs the Startup Studio and Incubator program, applications now open! She also celebrates another innovator working at the intersection of technology, regeneration, and ocean conservation. Tune in to hear how Dr. Ido Sella and a fellow Marine biologist, Dr. Shimrit Perkol-Finkel (1975-2021), asked the right questions and founded ECOncrete. Ido shares about the happy accident that led them to start this company and the relationships they’ve built to enable scaling of their solution. Plus, listeners can get informed on real-world applications and success stories of the ECOncrete team shaping and conserving areas where our human built environment meets the sea.
In our final episode of the American Blue Economy Podcast, our host Rear Admiral, Tim Gallaudet, PhD, US Navy (ret) meets with his former NOAA colleagues in the Great Lakes to explore under-ice technology and how ecological and oil spill monitoring are important tools for the Blue Economy in the region. Joining him are Steve Ruberg, a research physical scientist focusing on winter AUV technology at NOAA’s GreatLakes Environmental Research Lab (GLERL), Dr. Ashley Elgin, a research benthic ecologist also at GLERL, David Ruck, a documentary filmmaker formerly with NOAA and founder of Great Lakes Outreach Media. Together, they discuss how winter time monitoring is an important but difficult component of GLERL's long-time monitoring of the Great Lakes supporting recreation, fisheries, water quality, and more. Many thanks to our loyal listeners, and we wish you happy holidays, fair winds, and following seas in the years to come!
The Real History Behind Reversing the Chicago River with Mr. Dick Lanyan, who spent 48 years with the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago, where he became the executive director and ran the day-to-day operations - which addresses the industrial waste load equivalent for 9 million people. Very early in our American history, the potential for Chicago to be the center of an expansive water system, connecting the East and the West with its location on Lake Michigan and along the Chicago River, prompted the federal government to establish Fort Dearborn in 1803 where Chicago now sits. There is no shortage of written and digital stories about the Chicago River and how it was reversed almost 124 years ago on January 1, 1900. It is referred to as an engineering marvel – and certainly – it took engineering know-how and back breaking work to create this “Big Ditch.” But, the story of Chicago’s challenges as a booming metropolis started way before the re-direction of the Chicago River and has everything to do with its location on the southwestern shore of Lake Michigan and the great Chicago population boom. Further, Chicago's days of flooding are far from over related to climate change and its continued large population.
Tune into this special episode of the Sea Change Podcast to celebrate the winter solstice with Jenna, Portland Poets Society, and a sea of poetry! A special thanks to the contributors from the Portland Poets Society community and beyond for sharing their wisdom and art with us.
Dive into the remarkable tale of the Rouse Simmons, known as Chicago's original "Christmas Tree Ship," and explore how this early 1900s tradition continues to captivate hearts today. Join Dr. Theodore Karamanski and CAPT Scott Smith (USCG, ret) as they unravel the history of a trade where, as Dr. Karamanski puts it, "Sailing the lakes in November and December was literally participating in a lottery of death. But the profits could be considerable...” Uncover the legacy of a daring maritime tradition that brought holiday cheer and its enduring spirit in modern times, in this special holiday episode of North Coast Chronicles.
In these three episodes of World Ocean Radio we are exploring a recent publication entitled “A Forgotten Element in the Blue Economy: Marine Biomimetics and Inspiration from the Deep Sea,” authored by Robert Blasiak from the Stockholm Resilience Center in Sweden. The article identifies seven broad categories of biomimetic design: adhesion, anti-fouling, armor, buoyancy, movement, sensory, and stealth. In this 3-part series we'll discuss each with examples of application, technological invention, and as effective solution models for response to negative human intervention and climate change, and for ocean protection and conservation.
Enjoy the Shorewords! podcast with Dr. Edith (Eddie) WIdder, author of Below the Edge of Darkness, marine biologist, and co-founder of Ocean Research & Conservation Association (ORCA, www.teamorca.org). Eddie has spent years studying bioluminescence, which is light produced by living organism, and since most bioluminescent organisms are in the ocean, she has spent hundreds of hours in submersibles hoping to see flashes of light. Her podcast covers stories of her time under water and provides clear explanations of the current science on the hows and whys so many mid- and deep-ocean creatures blink and glow.
In this wrap-up episode, the Going Coastal team – Jon, Marissa, and Deb – take a look back at 2023, reminiscing about the year's most impactful coastal topics and their favorite moments. They explore the potential of living shorelines as the future of coastal defense, focusing on natural and nature-based features and stressing the importance of accessible, shared scientific data for enhancing coastline resilience. As they give a sneak peek into what 2024 holds, including exciting topics and special guests, listeners are invited to join in for both a reflective journey and a glimpse into an exhilarating future for coastal science and engineering.
