Thriving Through Synergy: Fostering a SOLAS Science Community Built on Equity, International Connections, and the Integration of Early Career Scientists
No full textThe Surface Ocean-Lower Atmosphere Study (SOLAS) is a global research network dedicated to advancing coupled oceanographic and atmospheric science, a field that requires both interdisciplinary and globally distributed expertise. Since 2004, SOLAS has fostered an international interdisciplinary scientific community through coordinated science and capacity sharing activities. This paper outlines how SOLAS 3.0 (2026–2035) will build on this legacy by further prioritizing diversity, equity, and inclusion, and expanding and strengthening research at the ocean-atmosphere interface. SOLAS 3.0 new initiatives include a mentorship program, skill enhancement workshops, increasing access to resources, and a network of observation and training centers. By learning from past successes and challenges, SOLAS 3.0 aims to inspire scientists from around the world, as well as the next generation, to address complex transdisciplinary research and tackle present and future societal challenges in a truly global way.This work is an excerpt from the future SOLAS 3.0 Science Plan. We are grateful to the SOLAS IPO, SSC, ECSC, National/Regional Networks, and the full SOLAS community at large for their contributions to the SOLAS 3.0 science plan.

Siboga Expedition, Sta. 305, dredge. Remarks. The material examined includes a collection of specimens from the area of Lesser Sunda very similar in shape and skeletal organisation to Phakellia tropicalis. The Lesser Sunda specimens are found deeper, down to 274 m depth, than the northern Australian populations, and have thicker and longer spicules. Some specimens are infested with the Parazoanthus. Further illustrations (Fig. 8) and spicules measurements (Table 7) are provided here for comparative purposes. This species was first described from northern Australia and assigned to Phakellia provisionally because it shares characteristic of the skeleton with the dictyonellid genus Acanthella, and surface characteristics with axinellid genera such as Axinella and Cymbastela. The species is genetically related to Axinella and Dragmacidon spp. (Alvarez et al. 2000; Redmond et al. 2013), which are characterized by different morphologies, skeletal organisation and spicule composition. Alvarez & Hooper (2009) also suggested that the species might belong to a new genus which could accommodate species of erect form and ‘bubaris-like’ skeletons currently assigned to hidden Acanthella and Phakellia. Distribution. The species was first described for the Sahul Shelf (with the majority of records reported from northern Australia (i.e Bonaparte Gulf and Arnhem Coast to Gulf of Carpenteria MEOW) (Alvarez & Hooper 2009). It is also found in the Northwest Australian Shelf province (Alvarez & Fromont unpublished data). Assuming that this material is conspecific with P. tropicalis, the distribution of the species is wider than initially thought and should be extended to the Central-Indo Pacific province (Fig. 2). x 3.7–9.5 µm (7 ± 1.6) x 9 –16.4µm (13.8 ± 2) NTM Z004463* Wessel Is 293.1–800 µm (553.4 ± 134.6) 273.6–658.2 µm (439.6 ± 111.1) x 4.4–8.4 µm (6.6 ± 1.1) x 8.3–16 µm (11.2 ± 2.2) QM G 312926 * Papua New Guinea 277.8–696.3 µm (476.4 ± 117.6) [24] 239.6–490.6 µm (343.5 ± 69.5) x 4.2–8.4 µm (6.3 ± 1.1) x 5.9–11.5 µm (8.7 ± 1.8) *Data from Alvarez & Hooper (2009)Published as part of Alvarez, Belinda, De Voogd, Nicole J. & Soest, Van, 2016, Sponges of the family Axinellidae (Porifera: Demospongiae) in Indonesia, pp. 451-477 in Zootaxa 4137 (4) on pages 464-466, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4137.4.1, http://zenodo.org/record/27193
US SOLAS Science Report
No full textThe Surface Ocean – Lower Atmosphere Study (SOLAS) (http://www.solas-int.org/) is an international research initiative focused on understanding the key biogeochemical-physical interactions and feedbacks between the ocean and atmosphere that are critical elements of climate and global biogeochemical cycles. Following the release of the SOLAS Decadal Science Plan (2015-2025) (Brévière et al., 2016), the Ocean-Atmosphere Interaction Committee (OAIC) was formed as a subcommittee of the Ocean Carbon and Biogeochemistry (OCB) Scientific Steering Committee to coordinate US SOLAS efforts and activities, facilitate interactions among atmospheric and ocean scientists, and strengthen US contributions to international SOLAS. In October 2019, with support from OCB, the OAIC convened an open community workshop, Ocean-Atmosphere Interactions: Scoping directions for new research with the goal of fostering new collaborations and identifying knowledge gaps and high-priority science questions to formulate a US SOLAS Science Plan. Based on presentations and discussions at the workshop, the OAIC and workshop participants have developed this US SOLAS Science Plan. The first part of the workshop and this Science Plan were purposefully
designed around the five themes of the SOLAS Decadal Science Plan (2015-2025) (Brévière et al., 2016) to provide a common set of research priorities and ensure a more cohesive US contribution to international SOLAS.This report was developed with federal support of NSF (OCE-1558412) and NASA (NNX17AB17G)
Analysis of accidents od non-SOLAS vessels
No full textPomorski promet je u stalnom porastu. Osobito se to odnosi na segment nacionalne plovidbe, u kojoj najviše sudjeluju brodovi na koje se ne primjenjuju međunarodni propisi, kao što je SOLAS konvencija. Zbog razvoja turizma povećava se broj manjih plovila za razonodu. Većina tih plovila koristi se sezonski. Iz tog razloga, pomorski promet značajno raste tijekom ljetnih mjeseci, a s tim porastom proporcionalno raste i broj pomorskih nesreća. Uzroci i razlozi pomorskih nesreća koje uključuju non-SOLAS plovila mogu se znatno razlikovati od onih koje uključuju SOLAS plovila. Ti uzroci i razlozi mogu se kretati od strukturnih i tehničkih do tehnoloških aspekata, no najčešće su povezani s ljudskim čimbenikom, s obzirom na to da relativno velik broj non-SOLAS plovila ne upravljaju profesionalni pomorci.
U ovom radu analiziraju se uzroci pomorskih nesreća non-SOLAS plovila na području Europske unije (EU) i u području Ekskluzivne europske zone (EEZ) u razdoblju od 2015. do 2019. godine. U tu svrhu analizirani su službeni podaci iz Europske baze podataka o pomorskim nesrećama (engl. European Marine Casualty Information Platform - EMCIP), Ureda za istragu pomorskih nesreća u Ujedinjenom Kraljevstvu (engl. Marine Accident Investigation Branch - MAIB) te Agencije za istraživanje nesreća u zračnom, pomorskom i željezničkom prometu (AIN). Usporedbom istih vrsta pomorskih nesreća u različitim područjima identificirani su povezani uzroci i karakteristični obrasci tih nesreća te su predložene preporuke za povećanje razine sigurnosti plovidbe non-SOLAS plovila.Maritime transport is constantly increasing. This particularly applies to the segment of national navigation, which is mostly occupied by ships that are not subject to international regulations, such as the SOLAS Convention. Due to the development of tourism, the number of smaller recreational crafts is increasing. Most of these vessels are used seasonally. For this reason, maritime traffic increases significantly during the summer months, and in comparison, to this increase, the number of maritime accidents also increases. The causes and reasons of maritime accidents involving non-SOLAS vessels may differ significantly from accidents involving SOLAS vessels. These causes and reasons can range from structural and engineering to technological aspects, usually related to the human factor, since a relatively large number of non-SOLAS vessels are not operated by professional seafarers.
In this paper, causes of maritime accidents on non-SOLAS vessels in European Union (EU) and in the area of the Exclusive economic zone (EEZ) in the period from 2015 to 2019 are analysed. For this purpose, official data from the European Maritime Casualty Platform (EMCIP), the Marine Accident Investigation Branch (MAIB) and the Air, Maritime and Railway Traffic Accidents Investigation Agency (AIN) are analysed. By comparing the same types of maritime accidents in different areas, the related causes and characteristic patterns of these accidents are identified and recommendations for increasing the level of navigation safety of non-SOLAS vessels are proposed

New Books Network Podcast - C.J. Alvarez, A History of Construction on the US-Mexico Divide
No full textRecent debates over the building of a border wall on the U.S.-Mexico divide have raised logistical and ethical issues, leaving the historical record of border building uninvoked. A recent book, written by UT Austin professor Dr. C.J. Alvarez, offers an over one-hundred-year history that extends to before the building of a border wall in 1990. Border Land, Border Water: A History of Construction on the US-Mexico Divide (University of Texas Press, 2019) recounts the history of how both US and Mexican government agencies surveyed, organized, and operationalized land and water from 1848 until 2009. By centering the relationship between government agencies and border policing, Alvarez clearly shows how construction and manipulation of the border space’s natural features maintained the political and geographical form of the nation-state, how it reproduced the notion of the border space as something needing to be controlled and dominated, and how it transformed the border space into one of economic possibility and growth. The history of construction and hydraulic engineering on the divide is largely about the opposing forces of border building to keep certain people and things out, and border building to let certain things in. Alvarez lays bare this tension between tactical infrastructure and trade infrastructure both as forces that have organized border life. During the 1960s and 70s, “the ports of entry began to embody the ever-deepening contradictions embedded in policies designed to accelerate sanctioned economic exchange on the one hand while seeking to decelerate black market commerce on the other,” Alvarez writes (143). By the turn of the 21st century, Alvarez argues, most of the police construction on the border was designed to manage the negative effects of previous building projects and policies. In regards to the completion of the 2009 border fence, Alvarez writes, “It was overbuilding designed to compensate for an unsustainable immigration system, unsustainable ‘drug wars,’ and an unsustainable politics of scapegoating noncitizens. Far more successful at achieving its stated goals, however, was the infrastructure of cross-border commerce” (222). Dr. Alvarez utilizes extensive government records from the binational agency International Boundary and Water Commission (IBWC)/ Comisión Internacional de Límites y Aguas (CILA), records from Army Corps of Engineers, the INS, and the prodigious W.D. Smithers photograph collection from the Harry Ransom Center. The number of photographs included in the manuscript shows the vastness of the US-Mexico divide's natural landscape, shows how agencies attempted to make sense of such vastness, and shows what they constructed. Border Land, Border Water is a must-read for historians of the US-Mexico divide, environmental historians, and anyone interested in better understanding from a historical perspective current calls construction on the border.Office of the VP for Researc
