SUMMARY:SUMMER SCHOOL 2020 #OceanOptimism: balancing the narrative about the future of the ocean
DESCRIPTION:The topic proposed for  this 17th AZTI’s SUMMER SCHOOL 2020  is “#OceanOptimism: balancing the narrative about the future of the ocean”. This course will build on\, and go beyond\, the “Status of the Environment 2019” and the “Marine Messages II” reports\, from the European Environment Agency. \nIt will be examined how\, despite the fact that our seas are facing important challenges (e.g. climate change\, biodiversity loss\, plastic pollution\, etc.)\, the management measures taken in the last decades have changed the decline trends of many systems\, including the reduction of eutrophication\, reduction of pollution from some metals and organic compounds\, recovery of ecosystems (and the associated goods and services)\, recovery of fishing stocks in some regional seas\, increase of Marine Protected Areas\, etc. \nIn addition\, for those topics that still show decline\, some solutions will be discussed\, including the narrative that still media is producing and how media can contribute to disseminate a positive narrative for society. \nThe main objective of the school is to give an overview on the challenges that oceans are facing\, the positive trends we can see in many locations\, and opportunities presented by scientific and technological solutions for impacted seas.\nFIND THE DRAFT PROGRAM HERE\nFIND INFORMATION ABOUT PROFESSORS HERE \nREGISTRATION HERE \nRegistration fee until 30th April: 100€\nSTUDENTS registration fee until 30th April: 80€\nRegistration fee from 1st May to 5th June: 150€\nSTUDENTS registration fee from 1st May to 5th June: 125€\nRegistration fee includes: Acces to the course\, documentation and coffee-breaks.\nIMPORTANT: Only bank transfer accepted\n \nThe attendees will acquire knowledge in the health of marine systems\, current trends\, future tendencies and potential solutions to improve those systems or ecosystem components needing management decisions and media support. This summer school will benefit from the inter/transdisciplinary integration of different sciences (e.g. marine and fisheries biology\, toxicology\, microbiology\, social sciences\, etc.) necessary to understand the response of our seas to human activities and pressures\, but also their recovery when adequate management decisions are taken and the necessary knowledge by society of this progress\, with the support of media. \nThis course will explore this through different topics\, particularly emphasizing communication\, citizens engagement and co-creation with diverse stakeholder communities.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR - Modernizing fisheries management using innovative genetic tools: the GECKA project as a case study
DESCRIPTION:Fri\, Jun 26\, 2020 12:00 PM – 1:30 PM CEST\nAccording to the Common Fisheries Policy\, fisheries management must be based on the best available scientific advice. This is achieved through the collection of harmonised\, reliable and accurate biological and fishery-dependent and -independent data. Yet\, often the accuracy of the data collected is compromised by technological limitations and/or high economic costs of scientific surveys. Thus\, there is a need to explore alternative or complementary approaches that can improve marine fish stock assessments.\nGenetics-based tools are considered amongst the most promising alternatives to improve and ease fisheries management as they allow measuring variables that cannot be measured otherwise and\, in some cases\, provide cost-effective alternatives to traditional approaches. For example\, genetic methods allow to assess population connectivity\, which is crucial for stock (management units) delimitation\, to assign individuals to population of origin\, which is relevant for resolving mixed-stock fisheries\, and to detect illegal and unreported and unregulated fishing. Recently\, more innovative methods based on environmental DNA (eDNA) for species detection or on close kin mark recapture (CKMR) for abundance estimation have emerged as promising solutions for modernizing fisheries management. \nIn this webminar\, we will review the use of genetic methods for population connectivity\, origin assignment and abundance estimation and use the results of the GECKA project as an illustration of how the use of genetic tools has revealed unknown issues that should be considered in the stock assessment of white anglerfish (Lophius piscatorius). \nJann Martinsohn and Antonella Zanzi (JRC)\, Marina Santurtún\, Naiara Rodriguez-Ezpeleta and Agurtzane Urtizberea (AZTI) will participate in this webminar that will be composed of a first part of maximum 1h for presentations and a second part of maximum 30 min for questions and discussion. \nMore information and registration HERE \n  \n \n
