FOR ANY OR ALL OF THE WEBINARS BELOW



Registration required: a zoom link will be sent to you before the presentation.





Sign Language Interpreters available upon request.

Tuesdays, 6:30-7:30PM



Join us from the comfort of your home for an informal evening learning about innovative research happening around Waquoit Bay.



Each session you will meet a local scientist who will share how they do their research, what they are discovering, and how it applies to today’s issues. There will be ample time for questions and discussion.



Brew up a hot drink, settle down into your favorite armchair and join us to learn something new.

What's in a Sound?



Tuesday, March 15

Ecoacoustics is the study of natural and manmade sounds and their relationships with the environment over time and space. This past year sound recorders were placed in several different habitats within Waquoit Bay Reserve. Alison Noble analyzed the sounds on the recordings and found differences in community composition that have implications for ongoing restoration projects.  Come take a listen to what she found out!

Measuring Carbon in Our Coastal Waters



What happens to the CO2 that we release into the atmosphere and how do we know?



Tuesday, April 12

About 30% of the CO2 that we release by burning fossil fuels is taken up by the oceans. This drives a decrease in seawater pH, called Ocean Acidification, that may have a variety of impacts on marine ecosystems. Coastal acidification also impacts estuaries, the organisms that live within them, and the humans that depend on them. We track CO2 by bottling water samples and measuring them in the lab or by using a variety of ocean sensors-- some of which are developed and tested here in Waquoit Bay. Join us to learn about how and why we study carbon in the oceans, and to learn about some of the challenges in building oceanographic sensors



Mallory Ringham, PhD Candidate, MIT/WHOI Joint Program in Chemical Oceanography
