Our Offshore Renewables team have had a busy week, contributing to the #PrePAREDProject Annual Knowledge Exchange Meeting. 🌊

An excellent opportunity to share research updates with stakeholders, and discuss how outputs will be used to support decision-making for offshore wind.

Today some of the #PreParedProject ECR were #CreatingConnections at this The Royal Society event in Edinburgh.

🗣️ A day full of fruitful and interesting conversations

✅ Bringing policy, industry and ECR from academia all in one place: what a great initiative!

Our Offshore Renewables team had a busy couple of days in Aberdeen! 💬

A series of meetings on the #PrePAREDProject , which is looking at improving our understanding of marine predators, their prey, & #offshorewind development. 🌊🐧🐬🐟

The #PrePAREDProject hosted their Annual Knowledge Exchange Meeting yesterday at Dynamic Earth, Edinburgh.

The meeting focused on providing stakeholders with project updates and discussing how outputs will be used in decision making for offshore wind planning and consenting.

The #PrePAREDProject investigates environmental impacts of offshore wind farm development and operation on predator (marine mammals and seabirds) and prey (fish) interactions.

Kate Searle explains how #PrePAREDproject is delivering research on predator-prey interactions and changes in energetics & will improve understanding of cumulativ effects of offshore wind now and in the future to inform changes in policy

#PrePAREDProject colleague Matthew Witt, University of Exeter, presented on PrePARED research at the Scottish Marine Energy Research Symposium (SCOTMER) this week showcasing fish response to offshore wind farms in the Moray Firth.

Excellent few days at the #MASTSASM23 in Glasgow, with lots of interesting presentations, catching up with colleagues old and new, and Dr Esther Jones and I enjoyed sharing our ongoing work on #PrePAREDProject and ECOWind ECOWINGS. 🌊🐧
Til next year! 👋

The #PrePAREDProject continues to work on research into the environmental impacts of offshore wind development.

Happy #InternationalWomensDay ! 🎉

Last week, BioSS and University of Aberdeen met at Lighthouse Field Stn to discuss the #PrePAREDProject . It was excellent to have so many #WomeninSTEM (marine scientists and statisticians) working together to deliver important offshore wind research. 🌊
