I had the absolute pleasure to present at the interactive dialogue on scientific knowledge & to the plenary of the UN ocean conference #UNOC2022 on the #worldoceanassessment & invite all ocean stakeholders to participate in the inclusive process @csiro @UN
The work that the @GOOSocean Biology and Ecosystem Panel of the @IocUnesco has been doing on global observations of #zooplankton and their importance for understanding change in the global #ocean is featured in this month's edition of @ecoMagNews. Link: digital.ecomagazine.com/publ…
Making those connections between science and policy is so important for ensuring decision makers are making the best evidence based decisions. And this is really important for ensuring your science has real impact. Highly recommend!
Are you a PhD student looking to gain experience in #SciencePolicy writing & analysis? We are offering a 3-month, paid internship to work with our Policy team – a great opportunity with a chance to propose your own research project. Applications close soon

Hundreds of scientists, policymakers, and academics from over 60 countries contributed to the development of the outline of the next World Ocean Assessment (WOA). Group of Experts representatives Karen Evans and Roberto de Pinho presented the documents to the GA for approval.
Great opportunity to gain experience and build skills on understanding & implementing the principles of the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (#UNCLOS) & overcoming challenges. #oceansustainability #oceangovernance #oceanfutures @DCCEEW @dfat
Registration is still open for the 2023 United Nations-Nippon Foundation Strategic Needs Fellowship!

Super experience for ECRs - don’t miss out!
Spread the word, ClimEco is back! 📢
@imber_ipo Climate and Ecosystems Summer School is happening from 19-24 June in Koper, Slovenia.
If you are a post-graduate or an ECR passionate about the ocean you can't miss this opportunity!
More info 🌊✨: tinyurl.com/22nk2p7w
Great opportunity with a fab lab!
Looking to do a PhD and interested in marine megafauna? Applications for Australian students are now open @scienceANU: anu.edu.au/study/apply/domes… Get in touch with me if you would like to work in the #SequeiraLab! 🎓🐳🦈🐬🎓
Just when everyone was wondering if the treaty for the #highseas would get agreed upon. Massive effort for the #ocean by many countries. Now to implement and action… #BBNJ @UN @GlobalGoalsUN theguardian.com/environment/…
New paper from the Global Ocean Observing System's Biology and Ecosystems Panel on zooplankton - a key component of the marine food web that all higher order animals in the ocean depend upon & in association humans depend upon for food and livelihoods @IocUnesco @IMOS_AUS @UTAS_
A paper produced as part of activities of the @GOOSocean BioEco Panel provides an extensive review of various studies that show how zooplankton is being affected by climate change.
Read more and find out how scientists study #zooplankton in Antarctica ➡️bit.ly/3m74Jnd
Super interested to hear how this might be applied to other species to allow for determination of when was this species here and potentially back calculating where did the species come from
Our new paper developed a method that can not only quantify Antarctic krill eDNA, but estimate a relative time since it was shed. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
Want to be part of team coordinating and managing marine biodiversity observations & engaging with a network of agencies, platforms, programmes & some really nice people overall? AND contribute to a really exiting project 👇 is your chance! @OBISNetwork @GOOSocean @IocUnesco
OBIS is hiring! We are looking for someone to support us in the stakeholder engagement activities of a new EU project @MARCOBOLO_EU which aims to develop a blueprint for a Marine & Coastal Biodiversity observing system, contributing to @GOOSocean see: obis.org/2023/01/18/vn-mbo/
Highlights and key take-aways from GOOS participation in COP-15 - delivering the goals of the Global Biodiversity Framework will require collaboration to deliver coordinated ocean observations that benefit all
The new Global #Biodiversity Framework identifies ambitious goals for addressing current biodiversity challenges. But to do this we will need a step change in the delivery of #OceanInformation.

Great to see people enjoying encounters with whales but @abcnews perhaps you should ask yourself if you know your whales ‘cause that ain’t a pygmy right whale - they don’t have dorsal fins & this whale clearly does. Try minke whale abc.net.au/news/2022-12-23/p…
Priority areas for acheiving the #OceanDecade outcomes identified by our next ocean #leaders and #caretakers @UNOceanDecade @undoalos @IocUnesco
🗣We are excited to share the work by @ECOPCanada and the outcomes of their workshop at @ECSC_4
7️⃣🌊This graphic highlights "How ECOPs view the 7 @UNOceanDecade Outcomes" and you can learn more in the article on our website: ecopdecade.org/how-do-early-…
✨Please do share widely!✨
Multi-disciplinary experts from >20 Indo-Pacific countries came together for the final World Ocean Assessment scoping workshop & provided perspectives on regional needs, priorities and challenges for a sustainable ocean future to shape the next #WOA. Super inspired & grateful!
Excited to be co-leading the @UN #WorldOceanAssessment with the excellent @robertodepinho, & working with the #GroupofExperts & the Secretariat to deliver comprehensive information on the state of the #marineenvironment & #socioeconomic aspects for use in #decisionmaking
I’m super lucky to work in a place that has some of the smartest people on the planet and the added bonus is I get to collaborate with them in developing solutions to ocean challenges. This one of them. Congrats @eafulton! So well deserved 🤩 @CSIRO
Dr Beth Fulton FAA FTSE's marine ecosystem modelling at @CSIRO—which encompasses microbes all the way through to human decisions—has directly influenced the sustainable management of marine systems on five continents. https://teapawt.net/t.co/Smje9U8h4S @ATSE_au #ShineDome22
Want to help guide international ocean research programmes working towards a sustainable future? Fantastic networking opportunity too! @AlistairHobday @eafulton @CMS_UTas
