SUMMARY:Video Chat with Briana Fodor
DESCRIPTION:“White Abalone Restoration Project Aquarium of the Pacific” \nFriday\, December 11 at 12:00pm \nClick here to register. \n\nBriana Fodor is a Senior Aquarist at the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach\, CA.  Briana received her Bachelor’s degree in Marine Biology from UCLA.  As a college student\, she received her AAUS Scientific SCUBA diving certification and began assisting with underwater field research\, further solidifying her love for the ocean and desire to help protect the underwater environment and animals. \nBriana started her aquarium career as an aquarist intern at Aquarium of the Pacific in 2009 and has worked there ever since.  Over the years she has spent time working with tropical pacific corals and fish\, but currently is working primarily with local Southern California species of marine animals. \nIn early 2020 Briana became the lead aquarist on the abalone program at Aquarium of the Pacific.  This is a partnership between a few California aquariums\, the UC Davis Bodega Marine Lab\, NOAA\, and Fish and Wildlife.  The ultimate goal of this program is to restore wild population numbers of the White Abalone\, a critically endangered species found off of the California coast.  Briana looks forward to spending more time with this program and the coming years and further helping to increase wild abalone populations.

SUMMARY:Video Chat with Amber Becerra
DESCRIPTION:“How Does Pollution Affect Our Oceans?: A deep dive into trash\, animal entanglement\, and what you can do about it.” \nFriday\, November 20 at 12:00pm \nClick here to register. \n\nAmber Becerra joined the Board of the Marine Mammal Care Center (MMCC) in November of 2019 with the intention of helping with fundraising because she has a passion for animals. Little did she know what was in store for her in just a few short weeks. Once elected as President in December of 2019\, Amber threw herself headfirst into learning everything there is to know about MMCC and reorganizing and fine-tuning the center with an eye toward long term sustainability. \n\nAmber’s background in environmental programs in law school and as the Executive Director and Founder of a Berkeley Law alumni organization has proved to be an invaluable experience that paved the way for her success in this role. Her experience with a multitude of organizations as an attorney and now as the CEO of a real estate development company gives her the business acumen that is necessary to make appropriate budget cuts and financial projections to extend the viability of MMCC until stability can be achieved. \n\nShe is thrilled to be on this adventure with her fellow Board members as they strive to take MMCC to new heights.

SUMMARY:From the Bay to the Border: Three of the Top Scientists in CA talk Ocean Innovation and Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:Join AltaSea for a webinar with three of the leading scientists in the field of ocean innovation and conservation. The webinar will focus on the impacts that climate change is having on the ocean and marine mammals\, and the innovations that are leading the 21st century approach to find solutions.  More information coming soon! \nPanelists\nDr. Jennifer Smith is a professor in marine ecology and conservation in the Center for Marine Biodiversity and Conservation at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego.   Smith’s research focuses on understanding the factors that influence community structure in marine ecosystems. Her research often goes beyond basic ecology by integrating conservation\, restoration\, management\, and sustainability. \nDr. Sarah Purkey is an assistant professor of climate and atmospheric science and physical oceanography at Scripps Institution of Oceanography. As an oceanographer\, her research is focused on quantifying temperature\, salinity\, and circulation changes in the global ocean\, including the deep and abyssal layers – the regions of the ocean that are difficult to access with current technology. Much of her current research is focused on explaining the causes of deep warming\, and advancing data collection and measurement in the global ocean. \nDr. Cara Field is the medical director at The Marine Mammal Center in Sausalito\, the world’s largest marine mammal hospital. Dr. Field earned the status of Diplomate with a specialization in aquatic marine medicine – one of only 30 veterinarians in the nation to earn that distinction. Her work is focused on managing the care and health of the Center’s marine mammal patients\, spearheading numerous research projects\, and teaching and mentoring the next generation of veterinarians and marine scientists. \nModerator\nModerating the November 13 webinar will be the multi-Emmy award-winning journalist\, Val Zavala. Zavala spent 30 years as a broadcast journalist at KCET in Los Angeles\, winning numerous journalism awards. During her career\, Zavala has covered a broad spectrum of Southern California issues\, including politics\, the environment\, and the economy.

SUMMARY:Discovery Lecture Series - August 5
DESCRIPTION:John Calambokidis\, Research Biologist\, Cascadia Research \nThe amazing underwater world of blue and humpback whales: new tags provide insights into their lives and the threats they face \nJohn Calambokidis of Cascadia Research has studied blue and humpback whales off California for 30 years. Starting with photographic identification of individual whales that now allows Cascadia to track most of the animals that feed off the US West Coast. More recently he has been using various types of tags to open up the underwater world of these animals. This has included video cameras that provide unique views of how these animals feed and interact underwater. These tags have also become powerful new tools for examining the threats whales face off California allowing an examination of how they respond to Navy sonar or the close approach of ships. The talk will trace some of the evolution of this research\, the new insights it is providing into the underwater lives of whales\, and will include some unique underwater videos of whales. \nJohn Calambokidis is a Senior Research Biologist and one of the founders of Cascadia Research Collective\, a non-profit research organization formed in 1979 based in Olympia\, Washington. He periodically (1991-2013) serves as an Adjunct Faculty at the Evergreen State College teaching a course on marine mammals. His primary interests are the biology of marine mammals and the impacts of humans. He has served as Project Director of over 100 projects. He has authored two books on marine mammals (on blue whales and a guide to marine mammals) as well as more than 150 publications in scientific journals and technical reports.
