Tide gauges are a critical yet often overlooked tool in our fight to understand and respond to climate change. In this episode, Dr. Andrew Thaler returns to the podcast to share a powerful story about installing a tide gauge in his hometown of St. Michaels, Maryland. He breaks down how this simple device provides crucial data for flood risk, sea level rise, and community resilience, bringing science closer to home. Community science is at the heart of Dr. Thaler's work. We explore how grassroots efforts, low-cost technology, and open-source tools empower residents to monitor and respond to environmental changes themselves. Whether you're a policymaker, scientist, or citizen concerned about the impacts of coastal flooding, this episode will deepen your understanding of how data can drive change from the bottom up.

When it comes to agritech, what often comes to mind is the farmer or producer of the goods, as well as the end-consumer and the process of shortening the journey from farm to table. But industries like Indonesian fisheries are more than just about the fishermen or the end-consumers -- there is an entire, complex supply chain of businesses delivering, storing, and processing fishery products from their raw material state to markets across the globe. We go on call with returning guest Bayu Anggara, CEO and Co-Founder of FishLog, to talk about Indonesia's fisheries supply chain (US$14B in captured fish and aquaculture) and the importance of redefining standards (see their recently launched real-time marketplace), capital access, and infrastructure access to unlock its potential in the global economy (US$6B in exports). Check out our first call with Bayu last year! While we focused more on local distribution and broad industry pain points last year, this year we dive deeper into supply chain pain points (e.g., financing, logistics for cold storage) and improving the industries' global export growth.

This podcast episode is about  cutting-edge marine technology in extreme use. It's in action at one of the longest and toughest professional sailing events in the world, the OCEAN RACE, which is not only a sporting event but also a race that is really about the state of the oceans. All five teams have cutting-edge marine technology on board to collect data along the way while raising awareness about the importance of this other Ocean Race. For this podcast episode, I spoke with Stefan Raimund, the scientific lead of the Ocean Race. www.theoceanrace.comwww.maritime-technik.dewww.baerbel-fening.de

“If we look back at the history of oceanology and marine science, there's always been this legacy of the need to push the boundaries of technology, but what's changed in the last couple of decades is that previously this meant putting people in harm's way—people on ships, into storms, and difficult conditions—but now we can transfer some of that risk onto robots.”Listen to this and other fascinating insights from Dr. Art Trembanis, an expert oceanographer and professor at the University of Delaware (UD), in the latest episode of ON&T's SeaState podcast, in which we explore the growing utility of underwater drones in the marine domain. Art is also the deputy director of UD's Center for Autonomous and Robotic Systems (CARS), a collaborative group of researchers focused on integrating real-world solutions by fusing systems control technology with artificial intelligence, so the ideal guest with which to contemplate the recent advances in uncrewed assets for ocean exploration.

This year's fall open house at Whittier Regional Vocational Technical High School has a new twist.Sunday's open house follows the usual course of showcasing the school to potential students and their families, but this time there will be a session discussing plans to renovate or build a new school. Superintendent Maureen Lynch, a recent guest on WHAV's morning program, spoke about putting the brakes on any talk of expanding the school.“We're looking at that. I think we're leaning toward keeping our school the same size, just for financial consideration of our communities. If our building grows, it also means more students will be attending, which is difficult for some of our cities and towns where their school age population is going down. I think the only one that is actually rising out of our 11 cities and towns is the City of Haverhill,” she said.Lynch said the discussion covers a feasibility study of certain options required by the Massachusetts School Building Authority. It starts Sunday at 1 p.m. in the music room at Whittier Tech, 115 Amesbury Line Road, in Haverhill.The full open house takes place from 1-3 p.m. and serves as a primer for potential students and their parents.“We will have, at that point, all of our vocational areas. Our 23 vocational areas will be having demonstrations. We're going to put a real focus this year, on our marine technology  program. We're looking forward to that,” Lynch said.The Marine Technology program is only the fourth program of its kind to exist in Massachusetts.Whittier Tech serves students from Haverhill, Groveland, Merrimac, Amesbury, Georgetown, West Newbury, Salisbury, Newburyport, Newbury, Rowley and Ipswich.Support the show

There are 306 ninth-graders participating in the Exploratory Program that will have the opportunity to select Marine Technology as a trade pathway in January, according to Whittier Tech. WBZ's Shari Small reports:

Welcome to this podcast episode, which is all about what marine research means for our everyday lives. It's about knowledge transfer, so it's about putting into context what marine researchers find out has to do with our lives. And then there's technology transfer: For example, how a super-light yet extremely stable algae structure discovered by a marine researcher can be used in the aviation industry.For such a technology transfer to work, there must be an interface, a place where the detailed knowledge of the researchers and the needs of the outside world meet. One such interface is the Technology Transfer Office at the Alfred Wegener Institute in Bremerhaven, which has been headed by Prof dr. Eberhard Sauter since 2008.Since 2017, he has also been on the board of the German Association for  Marine Technology, where he supports a number of working groups that also focus precisely on bringing science and business together.Eberhard Sauter is a passionate networker who had the desire to become a marine researcher at an early age and who today, in addition to all the technology transfer, inspires students for marine technology at Bremerhaven University of Applied Sciences.www.awi.dewww.maritime-technik.dewww.baerbel-fening.de

Marine technology is not about ships and shipbuilding, but about the technology that is used to explore the oceans, protect them and use them sustainably.Please consider the harsh conditions the marine technology is exposed to in the sea. The sea is often a very inaccessible habitat with strong currents and aggressive saltwater. The deeper you get, the higher the water pressure becomes, people and equipment have to be able to withstand this. Wind and waves make the work even more difficult, many jobs can only be done up to a certain wave height. Sometimes you also have to pay attention to the tides. And then there are remote and climatically demanding regions like the Arctic or the Antarctic.After all, we know surprisingly little about what lives in the sea. Researchers assume that there are a good 1 million higher organisms and 1 billion species of microbes. The sea is an almost inexhaustible source of natural substances. However, 95% of them are unexplored, in the deep sea even 99%. Marine tec is of great importance. In this podcast, we'll have a closer look at it. Bärbel Fening is a German podcaster and a tv-journalist, who specializes in marine issues.This podcast is produced in cooperation with the „German Association for Marine Technology“ https://www.maritime-technik.dehttps://www.baerbel-fening.de  This podcast is also available in German:"Technik und Meer - Faszination Meerestechnik"

We left the third interview with Captain KT Lwin in Rotterdam in 1952 taking delivery of the steamship Pyidawtha (see https://i.pinimg.com/originals/63/49/7d/63497db1c18bd22337ad2a8c6bf6b4be.jpg) , Burma's first commercial steamship to be owned by the Government post independence. He sailed on this vessel for a couple of years before becoming the country's first Burmese Harbour Pilot.  He then became Harbour Master, then Marine Superintendent of Burma's Five Star Line (the nation's commercial shipping line est 1959 with Israeli management - https://www.facebook.com/Myanma-Five-Star-Line-102752987844185/), then the founding Managing Director of the Institute of Marine Technology.  He retired from this role in 1974 having served the Government for 30 years from the time he joined the Navy as a seventeen year old in 1944.He then started his private sector career which included time in Singapore and Thailand where he had several roles including working for a Singapore company chartering and crewing vessels, for Duta Marine (a Thai company) and for SeaTran (another Thai company) before retiring due to ill health in 1984 and moving to Australia.  He kept himself busy importing orchids from Thailand but gave that up after 6 months as the business was beset with problems. With his health recovered he focused on building up his own family company, Mariner Shipping Services, which provides Burmese crew to many different shipping companies.  Whilst at the time of my interview he remains its largest shareholder he handed over the "reins" to other family members many years ago.The interview ends with 94 year old KT providing some life and health advice and, in particular, to those listeners over 50.

Episode 3. Science Funding and Policy: We Asked George JonesGeorge Jones, ORCA Government / NGO Representative and policy advisor walks us through the complexities of state funding for science and how the results of that science are used to drive local environmental policy. Support the show (https://www.teamorca.org/donate.html)

Host, Aurora Aparicio interviews Dr. Beth Falls regarding ORCA’s “systems thinking” approach to scientific research. Applied science is different from basic science research, which typically seeks to distill a complex system down to its smallest component parts to understand it. Although this reductionist approach is necessary to advance scientific understanding, it is not an end point. Applied science builds on the work of basic science to generate actionionable results that can be used to solve problems. As you’ll hear on this episode, One Health is an applied science approach that recognizes the interconnections between the health of humans, animals, and the environment.

#240. Mike Beemer is the department chair of the Marine Technology program at Skagit College in Anacortes, Washington. Mike & I were initially introduced by John & Amanda Neal from Mahina Expeditions, who work with Mike on some of their offshore cruising seminars. After trying to connect for over a year, Mike & I finally got to chat about his career. Mike started life as a vagabonding sailor & liveaboard, eventually discovering his passion for teaching. He’s since become a sort of evangelical of marine technology, opening up doors for young people and cruisers alike in the field of marine tech. Additionally, Mike leads flotilla’s in the summertime up the Inside Passage to Alaska. On the Wind is presented by Rutgerson Marine. And also supported by Adlard Coles, and BRNKL Systems.

Last year, Warner University announced a partnership with the Institute of Marine Technology to start the Marine Technology program on campus in Lake Wales, Florida. The intent of IMT’s Marine Technology program is to prepare individuals for entry-level technician opportunities in the watercraft industry. Attendees not only learn how to work on watercraft and gather hands-on experience, they work in a real-life marina environment and understand the inner workings of marinas and boat dealerships around the world. Industry experts have already made guest appearances and been signed to the program’s advisory council. The U.S. Department of Labor reports there will be more than 1.2 million jobs in the diesel, automotive, motorcycle and marine industries in the United States by the year 2024. To reach that total, the transportation industry will have to fill more than 37,000 technician job openings on average every year.  Justin Maley, the Director of Industry Relations for the IMT Program at Warner, has dedicated his professional career to the marine and powersports marketplace. He brings real world industry experience, valuable professional connections and proven education strategies to IMT. Justin is a well known and highly respected leader and educator within this specialized niche. Justin established a name for himself during a very successful motocross racing career. He is credited with designing the Bermuda Motorsports Park, serving as the national service manager for numerous OEMs, working as a technical advisor on multiple Powersports 20 Groups, and acting as a service department consultant to countless dealerships where he taught them how to improve their performance to boost the bottom line. Justin has made several stops within the motorsports industry in roles including dealer trainer, service manager, writing dealer training modules, Sr. Technical Publications specialist, and many more. Justin has also had some very interesting experiences along his path including teaching courses in the European off-Road power curriculum, and for sever years training members of the U.S. Elite Military Forces to rise and maintain a fleet of motorcycles in the deserts of Afghanistan and Iraq. He is extremely enthusiastic about the new opportunities at IMT and is especially pleased to share his world-class experiences, unique perspective and customized educational curriculum with students.    Justin and I spoke about the new IMT program, the need for more students to get into the field, how much fun working in the marine industry is, and some basic tips to keep things running smoothly so you recreational boaters spend less time and money getting things fixed that could be prevented. Enjoy! On his involvement with the new marine program.....I came on to help write new curriculum. The point of this program is not to rehash what’s already out there, it's to write brand new curriculum that’s up to date that would help the industry move forward. My role expanded from there to helping out with marketing and helping run the program.  On changing the perception of marine careers.....We have a stigma that is - anyone who says they’re a technician is the guy in the greasy overalls on the corner lot and that’s not what a technician is these days. I worked at a large school that did the headcount thing. I viewed myself as part of the problem rather than part of the solution. I stepped away from education and went to work for some OEMs. My passion is education and helping the next technicians come along so we would go to these vocational facilities and do some classes. I saw their curriculum that was written in 1998 and they’re still teaching the same things. When this opportunity came about, it’s not that we wanted to change the industry or the way education is done, we just want to keep it real life to the dealers and the OEMs. We want to supply them with a technician that can help them make money and help them survive.  On how the curriculum is structured.....We’ve gone out to dealers and OEMs to talk to the people that are out there doing it to find out what they want. We are 70% theory, 30% hands on. The experience will come down the line but the knowing how something works, we need to get that into their head as quickly as possible. On the reception within the marine industry.....The interaction with the marine industry has been beyond what we thought. We actually had to step up and have a conference in June where we’re inviting everyone to come to the campus to discuss how we can change our training to fulfill their needs. All the schools are invited as well. If they want to hear the problems that are in the industry from the people that are working on a day to day basis, they can adjust their curriculum accordingly. We’re not only looking out for ourselves, we really want to help the industry and the only way to do that is get everyone together and decide on a path that’s going to help the industry. On messaging to recruit students.....We’re saying if you really love the water, there’s a way you can make money in the marine industry. There has to be people who know how to pull things apart and put them back together. There’s real jobs out there in the real world. One of the things I tell the students is that every job that’s out there in real life is available in the marine industry and probably a little more fun. The marine industry is screaming out for every level, every position.   On personal boating experience.....I live on a lake. And the good thing about our program is we have our own boat ramp and dock and a bunch of boats over there. If I get a little antsy I’ll tell the secretary I’ve got a meeting and I’ll drop a boat in the water. All of our students have that ability once they fix something to go out on the lake. I’ve been out on the water in Italy and Germany. In Germany I lived close to a Lake called the Bodensee and went out on that quite a bit as a passenger in the boat. I’m getting more into operating the boats myself now. On what boaters can do to keep things running smoothly.....It always comes back to the basics. One of the big things that people do is they never keep tabs on their maintenance. They lose track of when they changed the oil last and how many hours were on the boat. Or they put it off. When you decide that you have a maintenance plan, you need to stick to it. Keep tabs on your hour meter and make sure it actually works. Get yourself a service manual and do what the service manual says. The people who build the boats spend a lot of time writing the service manual. I see every day people doing jobs without the service manual out and it costs them a lot of time and a lot of money. On training special forces.....It was a good part of my life. We were teaching special forces operatives to ride motorcycles in the desert and complete missions safely on motorcycles and ATVs and UTVs. It was very fun and a good thing to be a part of. Working with those guys and seeing what they had to go through to be a part of these teams was amazing. We would take a guy who had never ridden a motorcycle in his life and in five days be able to complete missions in Afghanistan and Iraq. It was good to know you are helping them be safe while they are over there protecting us and looking after our way of life. It’s very eye opening to see these guys come in and know that they are going to put themselves in harm’s way for what we consider a normal life.

Senior Marine leaders have identified a deficiency in the ability of Marines to successfully engage moving hostile infantry personnel. As a result, the Marine Warfighting Lab conducted an experiment to identify the most effective technique to engage moving targets from Sept. 16 to 27, 2013 at Marine Corps Base Quantico, Va. The experiment was supported by the U.S. Army, Asymmetric Warfare Group, The Basic School and Weapons Training Battalion. (U.S. Marine Corps video Lance Cpl.
