"Change is here: Modifying long term resource surveys due to offshore wind development on the eastern seaboard, U.S."
Kathryn Ford, PhD
NOAA Fisheries
Population and Ecosystems Monitoring and Analysis Division Chief
Wednesday, November 17, 2021
2:30 pm to 3:30 pm

Abstract:
The development of offshore wind in U.S. federal waters has accelerated recently as governmental decision-makers have set increasingly aggressive renewable energy and decarbonization targets that have led to state power purchase agreements for offshore wind energy. Now there are 25 projects in various stages of permitting, and the financial close of the first commercial offshore wind project occurred in the fall of 2021. Current estimates are for the occupation of 2.5 million acres on the eastern seaboard over the next 10 years and expansion beyond that soon thereafter. One of the challenges posed by these developments is the impacts of offshore wind development on the scientific surveys used to assess health of fish stocks and monitor protected species managed by NOAA’s National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS). Some of these surveys rely on survey designs, methods, and sampling platforms that are incompatible with wind energy infrastructure. Large wind arrays in which stations cannot be sampled will fundamentally disrupt these long term surveys and increases in scientific uncertainty will lead to impacts on fishing communities, protected species, marine industries, and the public. NMFS has described the needed actions to mitigate these impacts and has begun to partner with BOEM, wind farm developers, and the fishing industry on some initial actions to avoid the permanent loss of these important scientific enterprises. We will describe how individual surveys could be affected, the impacts to management advice, and describe current efforts to address the problem.

Seminar Announcement
"Melting Sea Ice, Accelerated Shipping, and Arctic Invasions"
Whitman Miller
Smithsonian Environmental Research Center
Edgewater, MD
Wednesday, November 17, 2021
12:30 pm to 1:30 pm
SMAST East Rooms 101/102
And Via Zoom
Abstract
Ships have plied Earth’s oceans for centuries, but maritime trade has been less intensive and expansive in polar regions than most other parts of the world. Extensive sea ice has precluded widespread access and transit by vessels for most of human history. However, under global climate change, sea ice is melting and Arctic waters are becoming more open and navigable. As sea ice recedes, the Arctic is experiencing expanded commercial navigation and exploitation of its natural resources, (e.g., petroleum/ mineral extractions, arctic fisheries.) Arctic shipping is increasing through both the Northwest Passage and the Northeast Passage (aka, the Northern Sea Route), increasing the likelihood of marine invasions and of biotic transfers between oceans in ballast water or on the submerged hull surfaces of ships. This lecture will review changes to
Arctic conditions, shipping, and development, summarize some recent invasions of the Arctic, and discuss modeling approaches and experimental work on inter-ocean corridors that may shed light on how invasive species management may be pursued.
