Abstract: Northern sand lance (Ammodytes dubius) are one of the most important and dominant lipid-rich forage fish species throughout the Northeast US shelf. These fish are critical prey for numerous top predators, including humpback whales, seabirds, bluefin tuna, and Atlantic cod. We use an array of laboratory and modeling analyses to assess the drivers of sand lance abundance and distribution from small (a few km) to large (shelf-wide and interannual) scales. Our findings indicate prey availability, larval predation, overwinter survival, and larval dispersal trajectories play dominant roles in determining the presence and abundance of sand lance throughout the Northeast US shelf. The predicted changes to these drivers indicate that the future for sand lance is precarious, likely changing the Northeast US shelf forage fish complex by the end of the 21^st century.

Bio(s): Justin Suca is a PhD candidate in the Massachusetts Institute of Technology/Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Joint Program, advised by Dr. Joel Llopiz. His dissertation work focuses on forage fish ecology with a particular interest in using information about their ecology to predict and prepare for changes in forage fish communities.

Title: Can Oyster Aquaculture Help Restore Coastal Water Quality?

Presenter(s): Dan Rogers, Stonehill College; Tonna-Marie Surgeon Rogers, Waquoit Bay NERR; Vivian Mara, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution

Sponsor(s): This seminar is sponsored by the NERRS Science Collaborative Seminar Contacts: Doug George (douglas.george@noaa.gov) or Nick Soberal (nsoberal@umich.edu)

Remote Access: Please register through Zoom (https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_vwluxm-MRde5gYvCnqe2Ig)

Abstract: Excess nitrogen in coastal waters can lead to a variety of problems, including algal blooms, fish kills and beach closures, but there aren't easy solutions. In Massachusetts, towns along Cape Cod have been exploring the use of non-traditional methods for meeting nitrogen reduction requirements, such as establishing shellfish aquaculture operations in coastal waters. This webinar will feature a recently completed research project that addressed critical information gaps identified by water quality managers and regulators - specifically the needs to quantify the nitrogen removal rates of commercial shellfish growing practices, and to identify best practices for siting and maintaining aquaculture operations that maximize benefits for water quality. In partnership with the Town of Falmouth, the project team studied the microbial communities and measured nitrogen fluxes in the sediment below three popular systems for growing oysters. They found that all three growing systems increased rates of denitrification and enhanced nitrogen removal, but aquaculture projects need to be carefully sited for best results. To share their findings, the team developed a best practices guide for growers, an eight-part video series to help inform local and regional planning boards, and signs and a demonstration site to help school groups and reserve visitors learn more about shellfish aquaculture.

Abstract: NOAA's mission of science, service, and stewardship enables the Agency to provide timely, reliable, and relevant environmental information to and for the American Society. The OneNOAA Science Seminar Series is a NOAA staff voluntary effort. The overarching objective is to make science-related seminars hosted by all NOAA Line Offices openly accessible to anyone to participate from both within and outside the agency. Within NOAA, the series provides a common one-stop process to pool NOAA seminars in one online location and format. Anyone can participate online in the seminars. However, there are technical limitations on the number of seminar participants; thus, attendance is on a first come, first served basis. Over 50 NOAA seminar coordinators from NOAA Line Offices contribute their seminar listings. Last year we provided access to over 500 seminars. All NOAA Line Offices and their Program Offices nationwide are invited to join this common effort. The seminar listings are also distributed to over 10,500 subscribers nationwide (and international) via a OneNOAA Science Seminar listserv email. The listserv is open to anyone to subscribe/unsubscribe and includes subscribers from U.S. federal/state/local agencies, universities and education institutions, industry, NGOs, and the public. About 85% of the subscribers are from NOAA. The series also hosts special seminar series such as the NOAA Environmental Leadership Seminars. We welcome your input and comments to help us improve the content and value of these seminars. For additional information and questions, please contact Hernan.Garcia@noaa.gov, Tracy.Gill@noaa.gov, or Lori.Brown@noaa.gov.

Title: Identifying Important Areas for Conservation: A Gap Analysis of US Marine Biodiversity Protection and Knowledge
Part of the Marine Protected Areas Center Webinar Series

Presenter(s):
Emmett Duffy of the Smithsonian Institution
Daniel Dunn of the University of Queensland
Pat Halpin of Duke University

Sponsor(s): NOAA National MPA Center and OCTO (MPA News, OpenChannels, EBM Tools Network)

Seminar contact: zac.cannizzo@noaa.gov

Remote Access: Register for webinar at https://register.gotowebinar.com/register/4656875260935398928

Abstract: The Exclusive Economic Zone of the United States spans 24 ecoregions across three oceans and habitats ranging from oceanic coral reefs to glacial bays to deep-sea abyssal plains and vent ecosystems. This expansive territory hosts a similarly great diversity of marine life. Yet there has never been a systematic inventory of US living marine resources. Such information is an essential scientific foundation as the US and other nations embark on an expanded initiative to protect marine life and habitats. The Marine Biodiversity Dialogues project, sponsored by the National Marine Sanctuaries Foundation and Lenfest Ocean Program, is conducting an initial, time-bound gap analysis of existing data to identify:

1. limits to existing knowledge of marine biodiversity and its distribution across the expansive US EEZ, and
2. key regions whose biodiversity is not well represented in existing marine protected areas (MPAs).

This webinar will summarize findings of this gap analysis and discuss how the emerging science foundation can inform strategic prioritization for protection of marine habitats and regions in the US EEZ.

Title: Confronting Parametric and Structural Uncertainties in Cloud Microphysics and GCMs

Presenter(s): Marcus Van Lier-Walqui, Columbia University

Sponsor(s): CSL Seminar Series
SeminarContact: jan.kazil@noaa.gov

Remote Access: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/6070393116811941901

Abstract: The cloud microphysical processes that mediate storm thermodynamics and produce precipitation are beset with profound uncertainties. At the heart of these uncertainties is the fact that no reference model exists at any scale " few cloud/precip particle interactions are understood with any certainty " and so real-world observations likely will provide crucial guidance for the foreseeable future. Observations of clouds and precipitation, meanwhile, are sparse, have uncertain biases and noise, and may have representativeness error with respect to model prognostic variables. The problem of learning microphysics from observations should therefore be posed as one of Bayesian inference, where all quantities are characterized probabilistically in accordance with their respective uncertainties. Bayesian parameter estimation, as performed by Markov Chain Monte Carlo samplers, is a powerful tool to constrain uncertainty for problems that may have strongly nonlinear sensitivities (such as microphysics). Recent research uses these methods to improve model performance and microphysical understanding in detailed ice microphysics schemes using polarimetric radar, and also in the GISS ModelE GCM using global satellite data. Despite these successes, parameters are not the only source of uncertainty, and in some cases model structural errors appear to dominate. To address these issues while retaining a physically-based model, we have developed a microphysics scheme whose structure can be systematically and flexibly adjusted called the Bayesian Observationally-constrained Statistical-physical Scheme (BOSS). I will discuss how BOSS can be used to probabilistically unify insights ranging from the laboratory scale to global observations provided by state-of-the-art satellites, and the role that machine learning can play in this endeavor.

Bio(s): Marcus Van Lier-Walqui is an Associate Research Scientist at NASA GISS and Columbia University in New York City. He received his PhD in Meteorology and Physical Oceanography from the Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science in Miami, Florida, as well as a MA in Physics and a BA in Philosophy, both from Wesleyan University. His work focuses on using advanced cloud and precipitation observations to gain insights and quantify uncertainty in cloud microphysical processes, often via systematic Bayesian inference. He is a co-investigator on the upcoming DOE TRACER field campaign and is involved in model tuning efforts for the NASA ModelE and GEOS models, CESM, and E3SM.

The talk will be recorded; link to recording available upon request.

Abstract: Marine species may respond and adapt to climate change through shifting spatial distributions, but options may be limited by the occupancy of essential habitats which are anchored in space. Limited knowledge of when spatial constraints are most likely to occur in marine fish life cycles has impeded the development of realistic distribution forecasts. In this study, we develop and implement analytical techniques to identify spatial constraints, defined by both the consistency through which a particular geographic area is used year after year, and by the extent of such area with respect to the entire population range. This approach is applied to case studies from three subarctic marine systems. Our analyses illustrate that the early phase of the species' life cycle is more spatially constrained than older life stages. We detected significant species-specific variability in both the degree to which species are anchored in space throughout their life cycle, and the ontogenetic changes of the geographic association. This variability can be explained by the species life history strategy and this provides promising avenues to extend similar analyses to data poor species. The presence of life history spatial constraints, particularly during early life stages, indicates restrictions exist to changes of spatial distribution and questions the assertion that global warming will uniformly result in an increase of harvest at higher latitudes and decreases at lower latitudes. Our study develops ecological and analytical insights that are critical for accurate projections of species distributions under different climate change scenarios.

Title: The Small Business and Innovation Research (SBIR) Value of Phase III Awards

Sponsor(s): Technology Partnerships Office, Tiffany.House@noaa.gov; NOAA Central Library, library.seminars@noaa.gov

Remote Access: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/3526854384993069583

Presenter(s): Tiffany House, NOAA Technology Partnerships Office, Commercialization Specialist

Abstract: The Small Business and Innovation Research (SBIR) program has three phases. Phase I - idea generation, Phase II - prototype development, and Phase III - Commercialization. Phase III is defined as an award that derives from, extends, or completes prior SBIR effort and is funded with non-SBIR funds. The objective of Phase III, where appropriate, is for the small business to pursue commercialization objectives resulting from the Phase I/II R/R&D activities. The SBIR/STTR programs do not fund Phase III. At some Federal agencies, Phase III may involve follow-on non-SBIR/STTR funded R&D or production contracts for products, processes, or services intended for use by the U.S. Government.

Abstract: Reef-forming species are the foundations of multiple marine ecosystems, and their health is inextricably linked to that of the ecosystem. In recent years, the importance of beneficial bacteria to animal health has become increasingly apparent. Symbiotic bacteria can provide essential nutrients to their hosts, help protect against and combat invading pathogens, and aid in digestion of certain foods. Understanding and characterizing beneficial symbionts of foundation species is therefore critical to improving the health of marine ecosystems. In this talk, Sarah discusses efforts to understand beneficial bacteria associated with two groups of reef-forming species: bivalves (including the eastern oyster) and stony corals. She uses a combination of experimental manipulation, genetic barcoding, and metagenomics to characterize persistent host-bacterial associations and draw connections to host health and resilience.

Bio(s): Sarah Gignoux-Wolfsohn uses omics to ask ecological and evolutionary questions about the relationships between macro and microorganisms. She earned her PhD. at Northeastern University studying microbes associated with white band disease in staghorn corals, and has since worked in many systems including bats, oysters, and other coral diseases. She is especially interested in using evolutionary biology and disease ecology within an applied context to minimize the impacts of disease on wild and farmed populations. She is currently an Ecologist at the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center in Edgewater Maryland.

Title: Constraints on the atmospheric limb of the microplastics cycle

Presenter(s): Natalie Mahowald, Cornell University

Sponsor(s): NOAA Chemical Science Laboratory Seminar Series
SeminarContact: jan.kazil@noaa.gov

Remote Access: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/5118979108227734797

Abstract: Plastic pollution is one of the most pressing environmental and social issues of the 21st century. Recent work has highlighted the atmosphere's role in transporting microplastics to remote locations (1, 2). Here we use in situ observations of microplastic deposition combined with an atmospheric transport model and optimal estimation techniques to test hypotheses of the most likely sources of atmospheric plastic. Results suggest that atmospheric microplastics in the western USA are primarily derived from secondary re-emission sources including roads (84%), the ocean (11%) and agricultural soil dust (5%). Using our best estimate of plastic sources and modeled transport pathways, most continents were net importers of plastics from the marine environment, underscoring the cumulative role of legacy pollution in the atmospheric burden of plastic. This effort is the first to use high resolution spatial and temporal deposition data along with several hypothesized emission sources to constrain atmospheric plastic. Akin to global biogeochemical cycles, plastics now spiral around the globe with distinct atmospheric, oceanic, cryospheric, and terrestrial residence times. Though advancements have been made in the manufacture of biodegradable polymers, our data suggest that extant non-biodegradable polymers will continue to cycle through the Earth's systems. Due to limited observations and understanding of the source processes, there remain large uncertainties in the, transport, deposition, and source attribution of microplastics. Thus, we prioritize future research directions for understanding the plastic cycle.

Bio(s): Natalie Mahowald is the Irving Porter Church Professor of Engineering in the Earth and Atmospheric Science Department at Cornell University, and the Co-Leader, Working Group on Reducing Climate Risk for Cornell Atkinson Center for Sustainability. Her research group is focused on understanding feedbacks in the earth system that impact climate change. This includes global and regional scale atmospheric transport of biogeochemically important species such as desert dust, as well as the carbon cycle. Her group look at these issues through a combination of 3-dimensional global transport and climate models, as well as analysis of satellite and in situ data. She has PhD in Meteorology from MIT, MS in Natural Resource Policy from UMIchigan, and is a fellow of AMS, AGU and AAAS, and has been a lead author on two IPCC reports.

Abstract: This seminar will describe the usage and rollout of the Great Lakes Spatial Priorities Study, a study conducted across state governments in the U.S., province governments in Canada, academia, and other institutions to gather information about where different organizations have mapping needs and priorities. This spatial priorities study, in conjunction with the National Ocean Mapping, Exploration, and Characterization (NOMEC) strategy, allowed users to determine which regions of the Great Lakes have the most mapping need so that resources can be allocated efficiently. Other goals include providing a means for participants to reach out to others for coordination and encouraging shared funding opportunities where there is a shared mapping need between organizations. Participants entered their office's mapping priorities in the winter of 2020/2021 with an easy-to-use online geospatial tool developed by NCCOS. These results were analyzed using geospatial and statistical methods to identify areas of greatest mapping need, and areas where there could be increased coordination between offices. By easily identifying areas of shared mapping interest, the Great Lakes spatial priorities study encourages mapping collaboration and shared funding opportunities.

How to use diverse incentives to promote effective and equitable MPA governance: New case studies and practical guidance

Presenter(s): Peter Jones of University College London

Sponsor(s): NOAA National MPA Center and OCTO (MPA News, OpenChannels, EBM Tools Network)

Seminar contact: zac.cannizzo@noaa.gov

Remote Access: Register for webinar at https://register.gotowebinar.com/register/5703333252590846224

Abstract: MPA governance is the modification of human behavior (e.g., fishing, tourism, coastal development activities) through an appropriate combination of incentives " including economic, legal, participation, communication, and knowledge incentives. Previous research on MPA governance case studies has developed and explored the hypothesis that the use of diverse incentives is critical to developing MPA governance that is both effective (i.e., they achieve conservation objectives and are not paper parks) and equitable (i.e., local customs and traditional ways of life are conserved, participation of local people is provided for, the costs and benefits of conservation are fairly shared). This webinar presents 28 new case studies (including a case study of the emerging policy framework for MPAs beyond national jurisdiction) to test this hypothesis and develop practical guidance for MPA managers and policy practitioners on how to combine a diversity of governance incentives to promote effectiveness and equity. Our research found that while many MPAs already employ a diversity of incentives, many of the incentives needed to be strengthened and others needed to be introduced.

Abstract: The subaqueous Mississippi River Delta Front is an area of dynamic (> 1 m/year depth change) and heterogeneous morphologic change. Here, we use machine learning algorithms trained and validated on repeat multibeam bathymetric surveys to geospatially predict depth change where it is not directly measured. We demonstrate here that depth change can be robustly estimated on the MRDF using as little as 1% of a full-coverage bathymetric survey, offering a valuable monitoring alternative to expensive and time-consuming full-coverage repeat mapping.

Bio(s): Jeff Obelcz is a marine geologist at the US Naval Research Lab at the Stennis Space Center, MS. His research primarily focuses on quantifying submarine slope instability at a range of temporal and spatial scales. His methodology includes marine geological and geophysical analysis (seafloor mapping, geological sampling) as well as machine learning for predicting seabed instability where it is not yet measured.

Abstract: NOAA's mission of science, service, and stewardship enables the Agency to provide timely, reliable, and relevant environmental information to and for the American Society. The OneNOAA Science Seminar Series is a NOAA staff voluntary effort. The overarching objective is to make science-related seminars hosted by all NOAA Line Offices openly accessible to anyone to participate from both within and outside the agency. Within NOAA, the series provides a common one-stop process to pool NOAA seminars in one online location and format. Anyone can participate online in the seminars. However, there are technical limitations on the number of seminar participants; thus, attendance is on a first come, first served basis. Over 50 NOAA seminar coordinators from NOAA Line Offices contribute their seminar listings. Last year we provided access to over 500 seminars. All NOAA Line Offices and their Program Offices nationwide are invited to join this common effort. The seminar listings are also distributed to over 10,500 subscribers nationwide (and international) via a OneNOAA Science Seminar listserv email. The listserv is open to anyone to subscribe/unsubscribe and includes subscribers from U.S. federal/state/local agencies, universities and education institutions, industry, NGOs, and the public. About 85% of the subscribers are from NOAA. The series also hosts special seminar series such as the NOAA Environmental Leadership Seminars. We welcome your input and comments to help us improve the content and value of these seminars. For additional information and questions, please contact Hernan.Garcia@noaa.gov, Tracy.Gill@noaa.gov, or Lori.Brown@noaa.gov.

Accessibility: Closed Captioning will be provided.

Slides: Slides will be shared with those who register and if requested.

Recordings: Recordings will be shared with those who register and if requested.

Abstract: The Atlantic menhaden fishery is the largest, by volume, on the Atlantic Coast of the United States, and Atlantic menhaden are an important forage species for predators such as striped bass and bluefish. Driven by the competing interests for this stock, the last assessment process included both single and multi-species models, which allowed for addressing multiple management objectives and for development of ecological reference points.

Keywords: Ecosystem Based Fisheries Management, Multispecies Assessment, Menhaden

Bio(s): Dr. Amy Schueller is a Research Fish Biologist at the Southeast Fisheries Science Center in Beaufort, NC. She is the lead analyst for the Atlantic menhaden and Gulf menhaden stock assessments. Her research interests include stock assessment methods, ecosystem reference points and management, and forage fish dynamics.
