Ocean Decade Laboratory - A Safe Ocean Date: April 05, 2022 to April 07, 2022
Place: Online, -
Description of the event:
The Ocean Decade Laboratories are a creative, interactive platform to
support action for the Ocean Decade around the globe. They are a virtual
catalyst of action for the Ocean Decade. Each laboratory focuses on one of the
Outcomes of the Ocean Decade.
Coastal communities and ocean users, ocean
ecosystems and blue economies are exposed to devastating, unsustainable impacts
on land and at sea. The frequency and intensity of weather- and climate-related
hazards are changing, which makes their impact even more extreme. Tools and
processes for evaluating and mitigating priority risks, and formulating
adaptive responses are needed. Higher-density ocean data and improved
forecasting with data on sea level, marine weather, climate, etc. are needed on
a scale from real time to decades in order to maximize safety on the coast and
at sea and minimize risk. Linking this data feed to education, outreach and
communication will inform policy and decision-making and mainstream resilience.
