In Part 2, Sondra Eger reaches out to the Apoqnmatulti'k Project to learn how their collaborative research project embodies Etuaptmumk, also referred to as Two Eyed Seeing. She hears stories and lessons from project partners Darren Porter, Alanna Syliboy, Dr. Shelley Denny and Skyler Jeddore who are all working to gather data and information that can contribute towards informing protection measures for culturally significant species. The episode reflects on Phase 1 of the project in the Bay of Fundy and the Bras d'Or Lake and concludes with the news that the project was recently awarded with funding to continue to expand and include new study species. With permission for Ocean Tracking Network and Apoqnmatulti'k project team, this episode is based on pre-recorded material from a previous webinar as well as interviews and subsequent commentary.

Welcome to Pubcasts. This episode is called: PubCasts - putting voice in scholarly work and science communication. This latest entry in our series of Pubcasts, audio-book style recordings of peer reviewed scientific research, is an article about PubCasts! We talk about why they are a valuable format for scholars interested in science communication and knowledge mobilization, our own experiences in creating and making PubCasts, and some basic information for scholars who want to try out PubCasting for their own work. Pubcasts are hosted by the Conservation of Change Lab (www.conservationofchange.org) as a part of Coastal Routes Radio, and are an ongoing project to experiment with science communication and making research more accessible and digestible to both scientific and general audiences. We were inspired to start Pubcasts via our own love of podcasts, demystifying science and the role of researchers in science, and the power of the human voice. We hope you enjoy.

The best way to protect whales is to keep ships and other human activities away from them, but we have to know where they are in order to avoid them. Traditionally this has meant watching for whales from the surface, which is time consuming and ineffective especially for deep diving species of whales. The solution may be to use another sense: sound rather than sight. The same acoustic detection techniques developed to detect the submarines are now being used to listen underwater for unique whale calls. Scientists and researchers with the Department of National Defence's science and technology organization, Defence Research and Development Canada, are working with Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Transport Canada, Dalhousie University and industry partners in this collaborative effort to protect whales. The goal is to use the underwater sound data in an app with a simple interface that will alert red or green on areas to avoid on a map in order to protect whales. This project has received permitting from DFO and Government of Nunavut along with obtaining animal ethics approval from Dalhousie.

In this episode we explore traditional folk music and how it is a powerful oral storytelling tool that carries culture, tradition, history, and knowledge across generations, shaping people's identity today. We speak with the infamous musical duo Fergus O'Byrne and Jim Payne who are spreading traditional folk music around the island – and the world – keeping Newfoundland and Labrador culture alive. We also had the pleasure of being joined by Darrell Power, former member of Great Big Sea, who has since established two recording studios among other projects. Our guests share their relationship with music, what traditional folk music sounds like and means to them, and how growing up draped in an era of culture and music influenced their musical careers. Joining Dr. Sondra Eger is co-host Sara Langer, a PhD student at Grenfell Campus Memorial University who also led the development of this episode.

In this episode, Dr. Sondra Eger is joined by Dr. Brennan Lowery, a post-doctoral researcher at Grenfell Campus, Memorial University of Newfoundland and Labrador and Joan Simmonds, manager of the French Shore Interpretation Center in Conche. Conche residents were determined to preserve their home, place, and heritage, and redefine Conche not as a dying outport fishing community, but as a culturally and historically rich place to keep the stories of Conche alive. Joan tells stories about how the tapestry and center came to be and how it is creating new economic opportunities in the region, creating a diverse cultural tourism industry. Dr. Lowery and Joan also give us a taste of a new augmented reality project they are collaborating on through Grenfell Campus of Memorial University, with funding by Mitacs, that will bring new digital technologies to share traditional, cultural, and historical places in the region, giving visitors a window into Conche's past, and visually see it.

Something is haunting our oceans... and it's trapping aquatic species and threatens fishers harvesting operations! In part 2 of our plastic ocean mini-series, we focus on ghost gear: old and damaged fishing lines, traps and aquaculture infrastructures that becomes loose in the ocean and continue fishing unattended. So, what's being done to address this global issue? in this episode, we find out by learning about community-led ghost gear initiatives. We will investigate where this gear is coming from, how it is being tracked, where some of the most problematic areas, how the gear can be retrieved, and finally, strategies for preventing ghost gear in the first place! We are joined by Matt Abbott, the Fundy Baykeeper at Conservation Council of New Brunswick, who will help us navigate this ghastly problem. He has experience working with both of our guests and will contribute to our conversations with Lillian and Melanie about their collaborative initiatives in New Brunswick.

What's the deal with plastic pollution and how can we further prevent our oceans from becoming plastic soup? We now know the impact of our dependence on plastic has impacts to both marine life and human health and will be unravelling some of the mysteries, questions and innovative solutions of addressing plastic in the ocean in a three part mini-series. In Part 1 of our plastic ocean miniseries, we will focus on just one aspect of plastic pollution: SUPs. Not Stand Up Paddleboards… we mean Single-Use Plastics! The act of using a product once and throwing it away is occurring so rapidly around the world that some even say we are experiencing a ‘Plastic Pandemic'. So, what are we going to do about it? Hang tight as we are about to hear the story of how the Town of Lunenberg shifted away from plastics and how YOU can too! In this episode, we are joined by two women – Jennifer and Ariel – who prove that changing our individual habits and status-quo in business DO make a difference.

Whether its seeing a cleaner harbour bottom or having a safer swim, Shawn and Staunene remind us that the oceans are our responsibility and they share the importance of cleaning up our oceans one harbour at a time! Removing litter from one beach or one harbour may seem insignificant in the grand scheme of things but the fact is, the more clean ups we do, the more awareness we can bring towards this issue and the more we can remediate and prevent more trash from piling up! Clean ups show us what the most common sources of pollution which can inform policies to target specific items and catalyze innovative alternatives and solutions that support local communities and regional economies.

This latest entry in our series of Pubcasts, audio-book style recordings of peer reviewed scientific research, is an article about diagnosing complex conservation conflicts. Conservation conflicts are pressing social and environmental sustainability issues, and the complex underlying causes and escalating factors of such conflicts can often be difficult to understand. This article synthesizes a breadth of conservation conflict literature to lay out a transdisciplinary framework for diagnosing complex conservation conflicts composed of six key aspects: complexity, emergence, and stages; conflict status; basis of contention and cognitive framing; state of knowledge; state of values; and interventions. This framework is based in systems thinking and encourages users to harness thinking based in storytelling and consider how a conservation conflict represents a larger ongoing narrative with depth, meaning, and containing complex, interrelated storylines. Pubcasts are hosted by the Conservation of Change Lab (www.conservationofchange.org) as a part of Coastal Routes Radio, and are an ongoing project to experiment with science communication and making research more accessible and digestible to both scientific and general audiences.

This latest entry in our series of Pubcasts, audio-book style recordings of peer reviewed scientific research, is an essay about sustainability. Fish hatcheries have received a lot of criticism in recent years over concerns that rearing and releasing fish from hatcheries may have negative impacts on wild fish populations. Yet, many local-level stakeholder groups, such as anglers, continue to support the use of hatcheries as a means of conserving declining wild fish stocks, particularly for Atlantic salmon. Could it be that their interest and support of hatcheries is about more than the fish they produce? In this paper, we explore the different kinds of social, psychological, and conservation benefits produced by hatcheries in three European case studies.

This latest entry in our series of Pubcasts, audio-book style recordings of peer reviewed scientific research, is an essay about sustainability. People talk a lot about sustainability, though rarely can people agree on a singular definition. In this essay, I argue in defense of sustainability—that these continued challenges are not fundamental failings of sustainability but rather are symptomatic of how fundamentally different the sustainability world view is from the mainstream, modern way thinking.

Enjoy listening to: Comprehensive plans as tools for enhancing coastal community resilience by Marina Cucuzza, Joshua Stoll, and Heather Leslie. Paper overview: Maine’s coastal communities face multiple environmental and socioeconomic pressures, including declining fisheries, loss of working waterfronts, and warming oceans. With more than 3,500 miles of coast, citizens have important questions about how their communities are preparing for and adapting to these changes. This paper explores the role that municipal comprehensive plans play as tools for communities to implement strategies that build adaptive capacity as they plan for a changing world.

Our goal is twofold: to provide descriptive information on these understudied aspects of the food system and to also contribute to the broader discussion of wild food harvests in the lives and experiences of urban residents, where the issues of people’s connections with nature, tradition and self-determination, sustainability, and social and environmental justice all arguably converge.
