Ocean Solutions: a NOISE Lab podcast

The ocean is as mysterious as outer space... and even more amazing, because it's teeming with life (sorry, Venus!). Unfortunately, human activities are wreaking havoc on ocean life, from coral reefs and kelp forests to charismatic whales and obscure microbes. So, what do we do about it? In this podcast, biogeochemists at the University of California Santa Barbara talk with entrepreneurs, researchers, activists, public officials, and others who are working on solutions to the conservation and climate issues facing oceans and coasts.

  With episode 9, we conclude season 3 of the Ocean Solutions Podcast! For the finale, we turn to marine social scientist Sara Nawaz, the Director of Research at American University’s Institute for Carbon Removal Law and Policy. We discuss her research on marine carbon dioxide removal technologies, especially ocean iron fertilization, and how to design policies that are just and equitable. We also talk about the dangers of moving forward in climate solutions without community buy-in and Sara’s journey to studying science governance.

  Season 3 Episode 8: Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement with Adam Subhas

  Sep 30, 202631 min

  Season 3 episode 8 of the ocean solutions podcast explores the marine carbon dioxide removal strategy called ocean alkalinity enhancement. We chatted with Woods Hole Oceanographic Insitution’s Adam Subhas, the project lead for LOC-NESS (Locking away Ocean Carbon in the Northeast Shelf and Slope), which was the first EPA permitted field trial for ocean alkalinity enhancement. We discussed Adam’s journey from laboratory science to running a field trial in the public eye — plus the importance of everyone from academics to start ups in exploring the scale of climate technology deployment.

  Season 3 Episode 6: Soil Health Initiatives with Dani Gelardi

  Sep 30, 202633 min

  For Season 3 episode 6, we returned to soil science and were joined by Dani Gelardi who works for the Washington State Department of Agriculture. We talk about their pioneering Soil Health Initiative, a collaboration between state agencies and academics to conduct research, outreach, education, and funding calls for farmers in Washington. In this final terrestrial episode, we learned just what goes into the definition of a “healthy” soil and the role of the government in setting regulations for climate solutions.
