SMAST Seminar - DEOS - "An innovative model to develop the next generation of Blue Economy talent" By: Nishita Roy-Pope

Department of Estuarine and Ocean Sciences "An innovative model to develop the next generation of Blue Economy talent" Nishita Roy-Pope Founder & CEO, Tribe Academy Wednesday, November 6, 2024 12:30-1:30pm SMAST E 101-102 and via Zoom Abstract: Nishita Roy-Pope, an award-winning leader in workforce development and community engagement, will present an innovative model for preparing the next generation of talent for the blue economy. The presentation will explore the successful application of this model at UMass Dartmouth, where undergraduate students have gained valuable experience through project-based learning and experiential opportunities with regional blue sector organizations. Additionally, Roy-Pope will discuss a new initiative designed to engage K-12 students, fostering an early interest in ocean-related careers. Roy-Pope will share how these programs leverage proven best practices from other high growth sectors and will be a key step in ensuring that the blue economy is truly available to all. By addressing the full spectrum of the workforce pipeline, this model aims to create a diverse and skilled workforce capable of addressing the challenges and opportunities of the rapidly growing blue economy.

SMAST Seminar - DFO - "Projecting changes to black sea bass overwintering dynamics on the northwest Atlantic shelf" by: Max Zavell

Department of Fisheries Oceanography "Projecting changes to black sea bass overwintering dynamics on the northwest Atlantic shelf" Max Zavell, Postdoctoral Fellow Stokesbury Lab University of Massachusetts Dartmouth Wednesday, November 6, 2024 3pm-4pm SMAST E 101-102 and via Zoom Abstract: The northern stock of Black Sea Bass, Centropristis striata, has spatially expanded over the past decade, potentially due to warming northwest Atlantic shelf waters affecting overwintering. Yet, current inshore winter temperatures below the species thermal minima require them to seasonally migrate to favorable winter conditions on the continental shelf which might limit an even larger increase in abundance. Here, I will provide a synthesis of current research efforts using both long-term mesocosm experiments and predictive climate modeling to assess how C. striata overwintering dynamics may change under continued future climate projections.
