Don't miss this great talk from Patrick tomorrow!

I really enjoyed being interviewed by the European Organisation for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites, EUMETSAT, about UoExeterCGES Research at Exeter with ICOS RI & ESA Earth Observation #ESAOceanSODA , & why ocean carbon is so important, and how satellites are key. thanks EUMETSAT

NEW RESEARCH! 📢 My first paper has now been published in the Marine Pollution Bulletin!

We examined the influence of #DepositionalEnvironment on #MicroplasticPollution abundance on #Beaches across the Bristol Channel.

Dr Rachel Turner is an environmental social scientist who works with coastal communities worldwide. Here in the UK, her research has highlighted the need for tailored occupational health services to support UK #fishing communities 👉 sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

#WorldFisheriesDay

Professor Prof. Steve Simpson studies fish #ecology and #behaviour to ensure the sustainability of #fisheries . His group crunches huge databases, conducts experiments, and collaborates with fishers & conservation agencies to translate knowledge into best practice.

#WorldFisheriesDay

Dr Ruth Thurstan examines the changes that have occurred in #marine systems over time. Ruth uses this knowledge to inform contemporary #fisheries management and #policy , and has worked with non-governmental and governmental organisations to this effect.

#WorldFisheriesDay

Marine #fisheries employ more than 200 million people around the world. This weekend, in celebration of #WorldFisheriesDay , we’ll be sharing how #ExeterMarine researchers are working with #fishing communities around the world to support more #sustainable fishing practises 🐟🌊

2003 recommend 20-40% of #ocean protected by 2012.
2010 less than 3% protected!
2015 change goals to 10% by 2020. NOW 7.78% protected.

Dr Julie Hawkins 'we are unlikely to meet these targets' despite them being lower and not as highly protected as originally recommended.

But what does 30% by 2030 look like?
How can we achieve it?
@Prof_CallumYork ' The story begins when you publish your paper so keep relevant and remain newsworthy! Influencing policy is a long game'

'There are no lines on this map other than satellite tracks of shipping.'

The high seas are no longer remote and inaccessible. We need to create effective management for these international waters! @Prof_CallumYork

Goal 1 Protect #Biodiversity
Goal 2 Ensure #connectivity
Goal 3 Avoid population collapse (inc. Fishery stocks!)
Goal 4 Avoid adverse evolution
Goal 5 Max #fisheries value
Goal 6 Stakeholders!
When all looked at together 30% by 2030 #ocean protected is Best! @Prof_CallumYork

It's a busy day for #ExeterMarine and this afternoon Prof James Scourse gives a brilliant welcome to @Prof_CallumYork and Dr Julie Hawkins for their guest seminar on #Marine #Science and #Policy !
