Abstract:
The Sea Level Rise Viewer, available at NOAA's Digital Coast, has been updated for TX, LA, FL, SC, and areas of WA. A total of 15 new Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) were updated and are available for download, in addition to the mapping outputs for Sea Level Rise, Mapping Confidence, Marsh Migration, and High Tide Flooding. A total of 46 map services were updated with the new data. Areas with older and lower resolution data sets have been updated, with most areas now at 3-meter resolution. Users can now zoom in further to see community level impacts. The High Tide Flooding graphics have now been updated to reflect the latest Annual High Tide Flood report. Additionally, photo-realistic simulations for select locations are now viewable for the 7-10FT sea level intervals and 35more simulations will be added soon.The Sea Lever Rise Viewer enables users to visualize potential impacts from sea level rise through maps, regional projections, and photos. They can also download all data and obtain mapping methods, as well as share maps and links via social media.In addition, there are other publicly-available sources for SLR data and visualizations that provide users with similar options and functionality. Several of these will be highlighted and discussed.

Title:
Understanding the Long-Term Change of Chesapeake Bay Hypoxia: Impacts of Nutrient Management and Climate Change

Speaker 1: Wenfei Ni, OAR Climate Program Office, Modeling, Analysis, Prediction and Projection (MAPP) Program

Abstract:
Eutrophication-induced coastal deoxygenation can result in stressful habitat for marine living resources. Watershed nutrient reduction strategies have been implemented in many coastal systems to mitigate hypoxia for decades. However the climate change impacts on hypoxia has not been fully understood and well quantified. This talk will present a modeling study to interpret the long-term change of Chesapeake Bay hypoxia in response to varying external forces in nutrient inputs and climate. The findings of this study can help guide climate adaptation strategies and nutrient load abatement in Chesapeake Bay and other hypoxic estuaries.

Title:
Tiny Plastics, Big Problem? An Assessment of Microplastic Ingestion in a Commercially Valuable Species

Speaker 2: Cheyenne Stienbarger, Global Ocean Observing Fellow, NOAA OAR Global Ocean Monitoring and Observing Program

Abstract:
Microplastics have emerged as a global threat to aquatic ecosystems. There are insufficient studies to understand the impacts of microplastic pollution on commercially valuable fisheries. This presentation provides an overview of the first assessment on the effects of microplastic pollution across multiple life stages of a commercial finfish, the black sea bass (Centropristis striata). We demonstrate that trophic transfer is a significant route of exposure to larvae, and early juveniles exhibit physiological stress following a multi-day exposure to certain microplastics in the laboratory. Finally, we confirm and identify the types of plastic ingested by wild-caught adults in North Carolina waters.

Bio(s):
Cheyenne Stienbarger is a 2020 Knauss Fellow in NOAA Oceanic and Atmospheric Research, placed in the Global Ocean Monitoring and Observing Program. She received her MSc in marine biology from the University of North Carolina - Wilmington in December 2019. Cheyenne's research focus areas included ecotoxicology, aquaculture, and marine debris. Her master's thesis explored the impact of microplastic pollution across multiple life stages of the black sea bass.

ABSTRACT Perceptions of river health are strongly influenced by expectations regarding a natural river. Many observers expect clear water, a slightly sinuous river with pools and riffles, and some riparian trees. River health, however, is much more complicated and multifaceted. The physical appearance of a river, for example, depends strongly on geomorphic context and river history. I use mountainous headwater rivers in Colorado to examine the influence of physical complexity on river health. Complexity can be described with respect to the stream bed, banks, cross-sectional form, and planform of the river and floodplain. The configuration of each of these components of a riverine system has implications for habitat abundance and diversity, sensitivity and resilience of the river to natural and human-induced disturbances, retention of water, sediment and nutrients, and connectivity within the riverine system and between the river and adjacent uplands.

Many types of resource use simplify rivers to the point that the river undergoes a metamorphosis, or a thorough, sustained change in channel form and function. Loss of. beaver dams and channel-spanning logjams in mountainous headwater rivers in. Colorado, for example, has resulted in metamorphosis of physically complex, anastomosing channels that were highly connected to adjacent floodplains. These rivers have assumed an alternate stable state as single-thread channels with limited retention and resilience. Effective, sustainable river restoration involves (i) characterizing the magnitude of different forms of physical complexity naturally present in a particular river segment, (ii) understanding the effects of physical complexity on river ecosystem function, and (iii) assessing the degree to which this level of physical complexity can be restored or mimicked. An important part of this process may be educating stakeholders regarding the importance of physical complexity �" messiness �" in healthy rivers.

BIOGRAPHY Ellen Wohl received a BS in geology from Arizona State University and a PhD in geosciences from the University of Arizona before joining the faculty at Colorado State University in 1989. Her research focuses on physical process and form in river corridors, including interactions with biotic and human communities. She has focused particularly on rivers in bedrock canyons and in mountainous regions, and she has conducted field research on every continent but Antarctica. She is a Fellow of the American Geophysical Union and the Geological Society of America. Much of her current research examines how physical complexity associated with the presence of instream wood and beaver dams influences the form and function of river ecosystems.

Abstract:
Collaborative science involves working closely with partners at every stage - from conceptualizing a new project, to conducting the research, to refining tools to best meet a management need. In May 2020, hoping to start a dialogue around virtual engagement for collaborative science, we held a webinar to reflect on the ways in which collaborative science practices have been impacted by COVID-19.
Now, as we look ahead to 2021, we're pausing a moment to reflect on what we learned over the course of 2020 and how our practices have changed in response to the pandemic. This webinar will feature preliminary findings from a 2020 survey of collaborative research grantees, first-hand commentary on how collaborative practices have evolved, and speculation about what these lessons mean for the future of collaborative work. The discussion will build on panelists' comments to further tease out the implications of these new practices for future collaborative science work, and how these lessons can be applied to coastal science within and beyond the NERRS.

Abstract:
A new remote sensing-based approach to monitor ocean heat content (OHC) anomalies is proposed to overcome challenges with observing OHC over the entire ocean. The output of an ocean state estimate - using the Estimating the Circulation & Climate of the Ocean (ECCO) framework - is assumed to be perfect observational data and used to identify prospective variables that could be calculated from remotely monitored characteristics of the ocean. The depth-integrated electrical conductivity (potentially derived from magnetometry) is shown to be highly predictive of OHC in poorly observed regions - such as those covered by sea ice - so it is used together with sea surface heights (from altimetry) and ocean bottom pressures (from gravimetry) to estimate OHC. The seafloor depth, sea surface height anomalies, ocean bottom pressure, and depth-integrated electrical conductivity explain virtually all of the variance in OHC. To demonstrate the feasibility of a method that uses these ocean characteristics - inferable from global satellite coverage - to monitor OHC, the output of ECCO is sampled along historical hydrographic transects, a machine learning algorithm - called a Generalized Additive Model or GAM - is trained on these samples, and OHC is estimated everywhere. This remote monitoring method can estimate global OHC within 0.15% spatial root-mean-square error (RMSE) on a bi-decadal time scale. This RMSE is sensitive to the spatial variance in OHC that gets sampled by hydrographic transects, the variables included in the GAM, and their measurement errors when inferred from satellite data - in particular the noise levels of depth-integrated electrical conductivity and ocean bottom pressure. OHC could be remotely monitored over sufficiently long time scales when enough spatial variance in OHC is explained in the training data over those time scales. This method could potentially supplement existing methods to monitor OHC.

Bio(s):
David Trossman is a physical oceanographer, by training. He received his PhD at the University of Washington in Seattle, did a postdoc at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, did another postdoc at McGill University, was a researcher jointly at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center and Johns Hopkins University through the GESTAR cooperative agreement, was a researcher at the University of Texas in Austin's Oden Institute for Computational Engineering and Sciences, and is currently a senior scientist at NOAA STAR/NESDIS through Global Science & Technology. In general, his research has taken two trajectories. 1) He has studied the physical and biogeochemical consequences of ocean circulation and mixing as well as the interactions between the ocean and other components of the Earth system in order to understand and improve the realism of Earth system models. 2) He has also probed the information content of physical and biogeochemical observational data sources to advance the reconstruction of the ocean's historical conditions through statistical techniques.

Abstract:
Environmental change can influence organisms directly, but species interactions also mediate these effects through predation, competition, and disease. In the ocean, the shifting impact of disease illustrates how host-parasite interactions can respond to changing ocean conditions. My work intemperate and tropical marine ecosystems explores how changes in the biotic and abiotic environment influence disease in critical habitat-forming species,especially corals and oysters. This seminar will highlight my recent research on co-infection in sea fan octocorals, interactive effects of pollution and temperature, and the combined impact of natural and anthropogenic impacts on Chesapeake Bay oysters.

Abstract:
Studies investigating direct effects of toxicants on exposed organisms are commonplace. However, little is known about the potential effects of toxicant exposures in a parental (P0) generation on unexposed F1 or F2 generations (multigenerational and transgenerational effects, respectively) in fish. To investigate this possibility, we exposed inland silversides (Menidia beryllina) to environmentally relevant (ng/L) concentrations of ethinylestradiol, bifenthrin, trenbolone, and levonorgestrel in early life stages. We then measured developmental, immune, reproductive, DNA methylation and gene expression endpoints for two subsequent generations following the exposure. Larval exposure to each compound resulted in negative effects in theF0 generation, negative effects on the F1 and, for ethinyl estradiol and levonorgestrel, the F2 generations. The specific endpoints that responded to exposure in each treatment and generation varied, but included increased incidence of larval deformities, reduced larval growth and survival, impaired immune function, skewed sex ratios, ovarian atresia, reduced egg production, and altered gene expression. Furthermore, altered DNA methylation was detected across all generations, indicating dysregulation of epigenetic control mechanisms in multiple molecular pathways. Models informed by these data predicted declines across chemical treatments. These findings suggest that assessments across multiple generations are key to determine the full magnitude of adverse effects from EDC exposures in early life.

Bio(s):
Bethany DeCourten has conducted toxicology research at the University of California, Davis, University of North Carolina, Wilmington and Oregon State University. She earned her doctorate from the University of North Carolina, Wilmington with her dissertation focusing on multigenerational effects of endocrine disruptors and climate change in estuarine fish. Both her graduate and undergraduate research assessed the molecular effects of toxicant exposure in fish, while focusing on environmental relevance. She is currently conducting research on the molecular effects of pollutants in killer whales (Orcinus orca) as a Postdoctoral Fellow with Ocean Wise Conservation Association in British Columbia, Canada.

Abstract:
Funded by National Sea Grant and USDA, U. Maine scientists have been producing and validating water quality products (temperature, turbidity and chlorophyll) using Landsat-8 and Sentinel 2AB. These products serve as inputs to compute suitability indices and growth models for shellfish aquaculture to facilitate decision making regarding siting of new aquaculture leases and optimizing use of existing leases. The Maine coast consists of a series of narrow inlets supporting a growing aquaculture industry (e.g., the Eastern oyster industry grew 9-fold since 2011 and the blue mussel industry has quadrupled over the same time frame). This coastline, however, is too narrow to be monitored effectively with current operational satellites such as VIIRS and MODIS, hence the necessity to use higher resolution satellite-based measurements. In the presentation we will describe the Maine shellfish aquaculture industry and its unique challenges, the ways in which high resolution remote sensing can assist the industry and the specific challenges we had to overcome to obtain reliable products.Speaker Biographies:Dr. Damian Brady is the Agatha B. Darling Associate Professor of Oceanography in the University of Maine's School of Marine Science. Dr. Brady is interested in how oceanographic tools such as remote sensing, numerical models, and water quality monitoring can inform sustainable aquaculture expansion. Toward that end, Dr. Brady is the co-director of the new Aquaculture Experimental Station made possible by a cooperative agreement between the University of Maine and USDA.Emmanuel Boss is a Professor at the University of Maine, where he has held faculty positions since 2002. Prior, he held research and postdoc positions at Oregon State University and University of Washington where he earned his Ph.D. He earned his B.S. in Physics and Math and M.S.in oceanography degrees from Hebrew University. The bulk of his work is concerned with both basic and applied research, developing new methods to use acoustical and optical properties (both from remote sensing and in-situ sensors) to quantify and characterize oceanic particulate materials. He is currently researching the use of measured optical properties (absorption, scattering and attenuation) to obtain the bulk properties of the matter in the ocean (e.g. particulate size distribution, composition).

Abstract:
The USGS Coastal National Elevation Database (CoNED) Applications Project develops enhanced topographic (land elevation) and bathymetric (water depth) datasets that serve as valuable resources for coastal hazards research. These datasets are used widely for mapping inundation zones from hazard events to support science modeling of sediment transport, erosion, and storm surge impact. As part of the vision for a 3D Nation, the CoNED Project is working collaboratively with USGS NGP, NOAA NCEI, and USACE JALBTCX through the IWG-OCM to build integrated elevation models in the coastal zone by assimilating the land surface topography with littoral zone and continental shelf bathymetry. CoNED topobathy development is focused in select regions around the U.S. coast, such as the Northern Gulf of Mexico, the eastern seaboard, California, the Pacific Northwest, the North Slope of Alaska, and select central Pacific islands and atolls. Current topobathymetric digital elevation model (TBDEM) 1-meter integration work will be highlighted in the Northern Gulf of Mexico along with plans for future work. Finally, the use of satellite imagery to derive elevation data using structure-from-motion (SfM) and satellite-derived bathymetry (SDB) techniques will be demonstrated for Cape Cod, Lake Michigan, and Unalakleet, Alaska.

Bio(s):
Jeff Danielson is a physical geographer working for the U.S. Geological Survey, Earth Resources Observation & Science (EROS) Center. He has an extensive background in working with geographic information systems technologies, image processing, remote sensing, and geospatial elevation data. His current work is leading the USGS Coastal National Elevation Database (CoNED) Applications Project for the USGS Coastal and Marine Hazards and Resources Program (CMHRP). Danielson also leads inland bathymetry research for the 3D Elevation Program focusing specifically, on inland elevation data integration. Danielson is the USGS co-chair on the Interagency Working Group for Ocean and Coastal Mapping (IWG-OCM) and JALBTCX representative.

Abstract:
The Sea Level Rise Viewer, available at NOAA's Digital Coast, has been updated for TX, LA, FL, SC, and areas of WA. A total of 15 new Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) were updated and are available for download, in addition to the mapping outputs for Sea Level Rise, Mapping Confidence, Marsh Migration, and High Tide Flooding. A total of 46 map services were updated with the new data. Areas with older and lower resolution data sets have been updated, with most areas now at 3-meter resolution. Users can now zoom in further to see community level impacts. The High Tide Flooding graphics have now been updated to reflect the latest Annual High Tide Flood report. Additionally, photo-realistic simulations for select locations are now viewable for the 7-10FT sea level intervals and 35more simulations will be added soon.The Sea Lever Rise Viewer enables users to visualize potential impacts from sea level rise through maps, regional projections, and photos. They can also download all data and obtain mapping methods, as well as share maps and links via social media.In addition, there are other publicly-available sources for SLR data and visualizations that provide users with similar options and functionality.Several of these will be highlighted and discussed.

Abstract:
Whale sharks (Rhincodon typus) are known to be the largest fish in the world with some individuals measuring 20 meters (60 feet) long and weighing around 40 tons. Despite their tremendous size, they are gentle giants, using their nearly 1.5 m-wide (5-foot) mouths to filter plankton out of large volumes of water as they swim. Very little is known about whale sharks in Hawai‘i. The researchers at Hawai‘i Uncharted Research Collective started this non-profit organization for this very reason.
