On Wednesday 8th June, the Marine Institute will broadcast a live chat with Ireland’s marine scientists to celebrate World Ocean Day. The conversation will be broadcast live on the Marine Institutes Facebook page, Twitter account and YouTube Channel at 10.30 am.

Join Marine Institute scientists David O’Sullivan, Claire Moore, David Stokes and Caroline Cusack, to hear what it’s like to survey our seas on Ireland’s national marine research vessels.

The RV Celtic Explorer and the RV Celtic Voyager, are among the most intensively used research vessels in the world. They have played an essential role in fisheries surveys, seabed mapping, and oceanographic research. Expeditions on the RV Celtic Explorer in Irish and international waters have resulted in many exciting discoveries – from deep-water shark nurseries, cold-water coral reefs, to hydrothermal vents fields in the mid-Atlantic.

The panel of scientists will share what they enjoy about their work at sea and some of their most memorable experiences while on board. The Marine Institute scientists will also talk about their career paths and offer advice for those interested in pursuing marine and maritime careers.

This Live Broadcast is part of the Marine Institute’s Oceans of Learning series, which aims to remind everyone of the major role the ocean has on our everyday lives and to inspire a new generation of ocean champions. The Oceans of Learning series on marine.ie offers online interactive activities, videos and downloadable resources all about our ocean.
