SUMMARY:Ocean Literacy for European Maritime Day
DESCRIPTION:The Irish Ocean Literacy Network\, IOLN which was formed in 2016\, is an all-Ireland group of organisations including public sector\, research\, and non-governmental stakeholders with the vision to achieve an ocean literate society.\nIt contains a mixture of individuals and organisations involved in formal and informal education and those who have no formal experience but wish to increase their knowledge of this practical skill. \nPart of the Seasearch Ireland series on online events in 2021\, this workshop is aimed at those who wish to learn more about ocean literacy communication and will be delivered by Dr Noirin Burke of the Galway Atlantaquarium and a member of the IOLN. \nLevel – Any \nYou can register for this free talk by click here. \n \n

SUMMARY:Site monitoring in Irish waters (pt 1)
DESCRIPTION:The National Marine Monitoring Scheme uses an informal survey methodology combining the existing Seasearch methodology with a list of bench mark species to be monitored at each site. Sites are selected by participants themselves to facilitate repeat sampling. Abundance is then measured for each species using a simple coded system SCOR (Super-abundant\, Common\, Occasional\, Rare). In order to participate in the scheme divers must: \n1. Choose a site to monitor \n2. Be confident that they can identify the ~100 species recorded in the scheme. These species are common species that can be easily identified visually in the water. \n3. Monitor their site across 5 dives – May\, June\, July\, August and September (divers can also monitor all year round if they wish). \nThis workshop will provide more details on how to begin monitoring and recording at your local site and on identifying fish species recorded as part of this scheme. \nTo register for this workshop click here.

SUMMARY:Explore Your Shore! Marine citizen science @ the National Biodiversity Data Centre
DESCRIPTION:David Wall of the National Biodiversity Data Centre’s Explore Your Shore! project will be discussing marine citizen science in Ireland. \nExplore Your Shore is a Citizen Science project funded by the Environmental Protection Agency focused on increasing our knowledge of the distribution of our intertidal species\, exploring their potential as bio-indicators of water quality and climate change\, and highlighting actions we can all take to tackle water pollution and climate change. \nLevel – Any \nFor more info on Explore your Shore click here \nTo register for this talk click here

SUMMARY:Exploring Galway Underwater Biodiversity
DESCRIPTION:Divers in Galway are incredibly lucky to have a variety of unique habitats and species right on their doorstep. As part of the Seasearch Ireland National Marine Monitoring Scheme (Adopt a Site) 4 sites in Galway county are monitored by Seasearch divers. This talk will cover some of the unique species found at these amazing sites as well as a lot of the common species found there too. \nThe talk will also briefly cover the National Marine Monitoring Scheme program and some of the key findings from the national results. \nLevel – Any \nYou can register for this talk by clicking here

SUMMARY:Biodiscovery in Irish waters with Dr Ryan Young
DESCRIPTION:With bioprospecting one of the scientific buzzwords of the last few years we’re delighted that Dr Ryan Young of NUI Galway will give a talk on biodiscovery in Irish waters and his work on the Science Foundation Ireland funded program “Exploiting and conserving deep-sea genetic resources”. \nDr Young gained his PhD in marine natural products chemistry from Rhodes University and is currently the senior postdoc on SFI Investigator Programme Award15/IA/3100 Exploiting and conserving deep-sea genetic resources\, responsible for chemical and biological screening \nThe 5-year (2016-2021) Science Foundation Ireland Investigators programme project Exploiting and conserving deep-sea genetic resources focuses on biodiscovery research in Irish deep-sea Cnidaria and Porifera. The aims are to: \n\nfind new bioactive natural products from deep-sea corals and sponges in Irish offshore waters\ndevelop informed bioprospecting approaches to maximise the chance of finding these compounds in hard to sample environments such as the deep sea\ninform conservation planning in relation to biodiscovery hotspots
