In this episode of The World Unpacked, Isaac B. Kardon sits down with Ashley J. Tellis, Tata Chair for Strategic Affairs and Senior Fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, and Andrew Yeo, Senior Fellow and the SK-Korea Foundation Chair at the Brookings Institution. They explore how the role of overseas bases has changed over time and how the U.S., China, and Russia—among other countries—use them to project power today. Despite advances in technology and long-range weapons, bases remain key to grand strategy, political influence, and sustained military reach.

We're experimenting and would love to hear from you!In this episode of Discover Daily, we delve into the latest maritime crisis in the Baltic Sea, where the Estlink 2 power cable connecting Finland and Estonia has suffered significant damage. The investigation centers on the Eagle S tanker, part of Russia's shadow fleet, as NATO and European nations respond with enhanced security measures and cutting-edge underwater surveillance technology to protect critical infrastructure.We then journey to Antarctica to track A23a, the world's largest iceberg, as it embarks on an extraordinary voyage after being grounded for over three decades. This colossal ice formation, larger than Rhode Island, has provided scientists with unprecedented insights into ocean dynamics through its interaction with a fascinating phenomenon known as a Taylor column, which caused the massive iceberg to spin at 15 degrees per day.The episode culminates with groundbreaking research revealing the surprisingly slow processing speed of the human brain - just 10 bits per second - despite receiving billions of bits of sensory input. This discovery has profound implications for our understanding of cognitive limitations, decision-making processes, and the future development of artificial intelligence systems that could better mirror human cognitive architecture.From Perplexity's Discover Feed:https://www.perplexity.ai/page/baltic-undersea-cables-cut-aga-mldvtKRKRYy1_hqiq8rVsAhttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/world-s-largest-iceberg-on-the-_JL2daWNTU2Buipo_pFc6whttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/the-human-brain-is-very-slow-YGm.UjyKRW.caXXHnhlb4QPerplexity is the fastest and most powerful way to search the web.

How do we stop over fishing? Fishing transparency is a great start. Many fisheries around the world lack the data to provide managers with the information to make better management decisions. The Coalition of Fisheries Transparency aims to work with their partners to help gain more information on each fishery. Maisie Pigeon, the Director for the Coalition, koins Andrew Lewin to discuss how transparency is made possible for fisheries. In this episode of the "How to Protect the Ocean" podcast, host Andrew Lewin discusses fishing transparency with Maisie Pidgeon, the director of the Coalition for Fisheries Transparency. The conversation highlights the significant challenges posed by illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing, which contributes to overfishing, fisheries mismanagement, and human rights abuses in the fishing sector. Key Points: Lack of Transparency: The absence of transparency measures in fisheries management leads to various problems, including overfishing and exploitation of fish stocks. Many countries struggle to manage their fisheries effectively due to insufficient data on fish populations and fishing activities. Complex Stakeholder Dynamics: The fishing industry involves multiple stakeholders, including governments, the fishing industry, scientists, and conservationists. The interplay between these groups can complicate decision-making and hinder effective management. The Role of the Coalition for Fisheries Transparency: The Coalition is a global network of civil society organizations advancing fisheries transparency measures. Their goal is to ensure the sustainability and equity of the fisheries sector by promoting better data sharing and management practices. Benefits of Transparency: Implementing transparency measures can lead to informed decision-making, increased accountability, and improved governance in fisheries. This, in turn, can help combat IUU fishing and promote sustainable practices that protect fish stocks for future generations. Global Charter for Fisheries Transparency: The Coalition operates under the Global Charter, which outlines ten policy principles to enhance fisheries transparency. These principles include requiring unique identification numbers for fishing vessels, publishing lists of licenses, and ensuring public access to fisheries data. Collaborative Efforts: The Coalition works with various countries and organizations to implement transparency measures. By fostering collaboration and sharing best practices, they aim to create a global community focused on improving fisheries management. Future Goals: The Coalition plans to expand its reach and influence, particularly in regions lacking fisheries management. They aim to raise awareness about the importance of transparency at international forums, such as the upcoming Our Ocean conference. The episode emphasizes that enhancing fishing transparency is a vital step in addressing overfishing and ensuring the long-term sustainability of fish populations. By improving data collection, sharing information, and fostering collaboration among stakeholders, the Coalition for Fisheries Transparency aims to create a more equitable and sustainable fishing industry worldwide.

What if the future of global power dynamics and, the question of winners and losers in the US-China competition could hinge on one body of water – the Indian Ocean? As geopolitical tensions rise and great powers vie for influence in the Indo-Pacific, the Indian Ocean is emerging as an increasingly critical theater of international relations.What is clear is that U.S.-China tensions are heightening the strategic importance of maritime security. How are these dynamics changing the geopolitical environment of the Indian Ocean? How are island nations responding to the increased interest in their regional waters, and how will they shape great power competition more broadly? Sophia Besch and nonresident scholar Darshana Baruah discuss these questions and more in this week's episode.NotesC.
