    Coral Reefs & Psychology: Gavin Miller’s Journey

    In this episode, Gavin Miller, a marine biologist from Global Reef in Koh Tao, Thailand, shares his inspiring journey into marine conservation, detailing how his leadership in scientific field expeditions shaped his career. With a background in psychology and a Master’s degree in Marine Environmental Management from the University of Exeter, Gavin reveals how he blended his understanding of human behavior with marine science to recognize that conservation is as much about human influence as it is about biological ecosystems. He discusses his entry into the field through hands-on diving excursions and research projects, driven by a passion to protect coral reefs and marine life. At Global Reef, Gavin and his team lead educational diving programs and innovative conservation initiatives, such as coral restoration and research on reef-associated species, aimed at preserving Koh Tao’s fragile ecosystems. His mission to increase ocean literacy shines through as he explores the use of cutting-edge technologies, like those discussed in prior episodes, to engage global audiences and foster sustainable practices for ocean health.

    The Science of Coral Resilience with Dr. Emma Camp

    Dive into the future of coral reefs with our latest episode, hosted by Kaylee Shae, featuring the rockstar of the coral world, Dr. Emma Camp! As co-founder of the ⁠Coral Nurture Program⁠ on the Great Barrier Reef and leader of the ⁠Future Reefs Team⁠, Dr. Camp shares insights on coral resilience, climate impacts, and her team's research to give our future coral reefs a better chance at survival. In this episode, we explore: Introducing Dr. Camp The Basics: Why are corals important? Coral Resilience Research: Studying how corals adapt in labs and on the Great Barrier Reef by moving them to new environments, like mangroves, to boost their survival against climate change. Climate Change Predictions: We briefly discuss the subject of climate change stats, including the “climate alarmism” issue. Reefs & Human Rights: Coral protection isn’t just science—it’s a fight for communities hit hardest by climate change, led by women, youth, and Indigenous groups. Super Corals: What are they? Hint: Not Frankenstein creations, but naturally resilient corals thriving in extreme environments like thermal vents and the Red Sea. Dr. Camp breaks down how these tough corals could save reefs from climate change!

    Dr. Orion McCarthy Part 1: Unveiling Photogrammetry’s Role in Coral Conservation

    Dr. Orion McCarthy joins us to explore photogrammetry, a revolutionary technique creating 3D models to monitor and protect coral reefs, unveiling its role in modern conservation. From his early passion sparked by Australia’s vibrant oceans to its power in tracking reef health, we dive into how this tech is reshaping how we observe coral health over time. Today we look at Orions journey in long term monitoring, post-storm stories, and more. Tune in for an insider’s look at why photogrammetry is the future of resilient reefs!

    Introduction to Coral Currents

    Welcome to Coral Currents! Weekly podcasts brought to you by a young woman in STEM. I started this series because I wanted to learn more about corals myself. I realized I was stuck reading only the research papers that felt most relatable to me, without connecting with the broader community or diving into the politics and bigger picture around reefs. So, with this podcast, I hope to connect with people in the field and maybe open up new opportunities I wouldn't have found online. Join me! Check out my website and submit content suggestions, ask questions, and check out the future guest lineup: https://kayleeshae97.wixsite.com/coralcurrentspodcast
