003 - Diverse Sharks, Diverse Scientists (feat Melissa Cristina Marquez)

This episode features Melissa Cristina Marquez: artist, author, public speaker, field biologist, and founder of The Fins United Initiative. We talk about how sharks are misunderstood predators and how the diversity of sharks is often as invisible as the diversity of the scientists who study them. She also talks about getting bit by an alligator. Tune in!

002 - The Ethical Deployment of Marine Sensors (feat Pete Marchetto and Dmitri Ponirakis)

Hello ocean hackers! Mark here. I'm very excited to publish this, the first in our subject matter expert interviews for the podcast and hackathon. For those of you who don't know, all of this is centered around an annual Hack for the Sea event, which takes place in September in or around Cape Ann Massachusetts. The concept for this episode is how an ocean hacker might balance the need for deploying sensors to collect marine data, and the impact said sensors might have on the marine flora and fauna. Our experts are Pete Marchetto and Dmitry Ponirakis. Dmitri is a senior noise analyst and applications programmer for the Bioacoustics Research Program at The Cornell Lab. He developed something called the Acoustic Ecology Toolbox to model the loss of communication space and masking of animal vocalizations from anthropogenic and abiotic sound sources. Peter is an Assistant Professor at University of Minnesota's Department of Bioproducts and Biosystems Engineering. His research is focused on how to get data from the natural environment out of the field and into a form that can be used to make decisions I met Pete first on Twitter, we had a great exchange about sensors. Pete was able to actually do a calculation for me to show how much impact a single sensor might have. Check that out, under https;//twitter.com/hackforthesea He then invited Dmitri to check his work, and then we started talking about recording this episode. Terms to listen for in this episode. We'll put these in the glossary for future reference. - The Cornell library of natural sound - deep sound channel - DCL - Detection, Classification, and Localization + DE Density Estimation (whales per cubic meter) - The Confused Whale Kaggle Competition - critical sensing system density Please go to http://github.com/hackforthesea for information on ocean hacking, and visit http://patreon.com/hackforthesea to support the podcast. The audio quality has some beeps and clicks in it, but bear with it, it's a great and illuminating, if not cavitating conversation. Here we go!
