There will be a high-pitched, continuous hum on NSW ocean beaches from shark surveillance drones
* "Shark-spotting drones will provide year-round coverage at about 70 beaches along the NSW coast as part of an expanded surveillance program announced after a Sydney mother was attacked by a suspected white shark."
"The state government on Sunday announced it would allocate an additional $34 million for shark-spotting drones, providing coverage at every ocean beach from Palm Beach to Cronulla 365 days of the year."
"About 70 beaches across the state will have year-round drone surveillance, with all Sydney beaches covered from July 1.It will also trial artificial intelligence to improve shark detection." >>

I'm on a wild goose chase for an expert in medusozoa / cnidaria life cycle and ecology (a jellyfish expert so to say).
One of my colleagues is researching jellyfish blooms in the North Sea for her PhD, and has some questions on the general things. Preferably in Belgium or surroundings, so she can visit with a bunch of questions.
It's a long shot, but asking is free. Sharing appreciated!

The effect of #ClimateChange on sources of #radionuclides to the #MarineEnvironment
Published: 16 March 2024
Justin P. Gwynn, Vanessa Hatje, Núria Casacuberta, Manmohan Sarin & Iolanda OsvathAbstract:
"Climate change interacts with the sources and cycling of contaminants, such as radionuclides, in the environment. In this review, we discuss the implications of climate change impacts on existing and potential future sources of radionuclides associated with human activities to the marine environment. The overall effect on operational releases of radionuclides from the nuclear and non-nuclear sectors will likely be increased interference or prevention of normal operations due to weather-related events. For certain #RadioactiveWaste dumped at sea and sunken #NuclearSubmarines, the impact of climate change and ocean #acidification on the release of radionuclides and their subsequent fate in the marine environment should be considered further. Fluxes from secondary sources of radionuclides in the marine and terrestrial environment and cryosphere will change in response to climate change impacts such as sea level rise, warming and changes in precipitation patterns. In addition, climate change impacts may increase the risk of releases of radionuclides from operational and legacy wastes on land to the marine environment. Overall, our synthesis highlights that there is a need to understand and assess climate change impacts on sources of radionuclides to the marine environment to meet environmental and management challenges under future climate scenarios."Full paper:

Project to restore 'vital' #seagrass around #Scotland
March 1, 2025
"A £2.4m seagrass planting programme has been launched to help restore the plant in seas around the north of Scotland.
"The project aims to plant 14 hectares (34.6 acres) of seagrass, often described as a 'wonder plant' by conservationists, over the next three years.
"Seagrasses are often likened to rainforests because they provide food and shelter for thousands of species, but they have been declining globally since the 1930s.
"In the last century 92% of the plants have been lost from Britain's coasts and areas once covered by seagrass are now 'lifeless seabeds', according to research by University College London.
"The new initiative is a partnership between the Scottish Marine Environmental Enhancement Fund (#SMEEF) and Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks (SSEN).
"Grants have been awarded to four organisations that cover areas from #Shetland to the #Kintyre peninsula.
"These are #MossyEarth's #WilderFirths project (based around the Black Isle), Kintyre Coastal Network's East Kintyre Biosphere, Wester Ross Fisheries Trust's seagrass planting project and Restoring Shetland's Marlie Meadows - a project by the University of the #Highlands and Islands.
"Seagrass is home to a vast number of species, and is a food source for many others.
"It can purify water and slow down waves, protecting coastal areas from flooding as a result.
"The plant also takes in #CO2, making it useful in tackling #ClimateChange.
"The partnership said Scottish seas are a special place for marine habitats like seagrass, with the country's coasts stretching 18,000km (11,185 miles) and containing 8,000 species or more."

Project to restore 'vital' #seagrass around #Scotland
March 1, 2025
"A £2.4m seagrass planting programme has been launched to help restore the plant in seas around the north of Scotland.
"The project aims to plant 14 hectares (34.6 acres) of seagrass, often described as a 'wonder plant' by conservationists, over the next three years.
"Seagrasses are often likened to rainforests because they provide food and shelter for thousands of species, but they have been declining globally since the 1930s.
"In the last century 92% of the plants have been lost from Britain's coasts and areas once covered by seagrass are now 'lifeless seabeds', according to research by University College London.
"The new initiative is a partnership between the Scottish Marine Environmental Enhancement Fund (#SMEEF) and Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks (SSEN).
"Grants have been awarded to four organisations that cover areas from #Shetland to the #Kintyre peninsula.
"These are #MossyEarth's #WilderFirths project (based around the Black Isle), Kintyre Coastal Network's East Kintyre Biosphere, Wester Ross Fisheries Trust's seagrass planting project and Restoring Shetland's Marlie Meadows - a project by the University of the #Highlands and Islands.
"Seagrass is home to a vast number of species, and is a food source for many others.
"It can purify water and slow down waves, protecting coastal areas from flooding as a result.
"The plant also takes in #CO2, making it useful in tackling #ClimateChange.
"The partnership said Scottish seas are a special place for marine habitats like seagrass, with the country's coasts stretching 18,000km (11,185 miles) and containing 8,000 species or more."
