The oceans are an integral part of the Blue Planet: they provide transportation routes, food, energy and they help stabilise the climate.
As we aim to adapt to climate changes we are not fully understanding, what is their new role? This talk will present a general view of the oceans, with a clear emphasis on the Arctic ocean, where Philippe's research is focused now.
We will look at what happens in the Arctic now, the direct impacts on biodiversity and human activities and how it affects weather systems further south, from ocean currents to monsoons and the now regular "Arctic blasts".
Join the discussion as we explore solutions like Marine Renewable Energies, and how the UK is ideally placed to benefit from wind, waves and currents, again drawing on recent research results.
