Youth Science Ambassadors: Empowering coastal communities to #knowtheocean

In communities along the British Columbia and Nunavut coastlines, Ocean Networks Canada’s (ONC) Youth Science Ambassadors are empowering students, teachers, leaders, and Elders to use high-tech ocean sensors and interpret the data to inform decision-making about their changing ocean.

Figure 1. ONC’s three newest Youth Science Ambassadors (left to right): Dennis Ongahak, Kugluktuk, Nunavut; Gibson Kelly Porter, Gjoa Haven, Nunavut; and Taylor Reidlinger, Prince Rupert, British Columbia.

In February, three of ONC’s newest Youth Science Ambassadors traveled to Victoria for two weeks of training at the start of their one-year terms (Figure 1)....

A glimpse at the team behind Canada’s national ocean observatory

“Successful innovation is not a single breakthrough. It is not a sprint. It’s not an event for the solo runner. Successful innovation is a team sport, it’s a relay race. “ ~ Quyen Nguyen, professor of surgery, University of California.

Observing and understanding the ocean is as challenging as space exploration; it takes leadership, innovation, and teamwork.

Your new Digital Fishers mission (should you choose to accept it)…

The ocean needs you! With close to 100,000 hours of archived video footage⎯and more being continuously captured by Ocean Networks Canada’s (ONC) underwater cameras⎯you can help scientists answer important questions about the ocean. Play a fun video game that analyzes the behaviour of deep sea marine life.

How are changes in the upper ocean affecting the abundance of organic matter⎯food for deep sea marine life⎯on the ocean floor? How do seasonal variations in oxygen concentration affect flora and fauna in Barkley Canyon, off Canada’s west coast? As a citizen scientist, you can help ONC researchers study species diversity, distribution, and behaviour in this complex ecosystem (Figure 1).
