Amplifying Voices in Aquatic Sciences: Human Impacts on the Ocean
Session ID#: 256627
Session Description:
Addressing the issues facing the planet requires international and multidisciplinary research efforts to ensure inclusive, holistic, and innovative solutions. The ASLO Early Career Committee (ECC) seeks to enhance global collaboration and networking opportunities for early career researchers (ECRs*), through the "Amplifying Voices" series (a combination of webinars and conference sessions) which aims to visualize contributions of ECRs from underrepresented** groups in Aquatic Sciences.
After high participation at previous ASLO meetings, we are excited to bring "Amplifying Voices" to OSM2026, inviting ECRs worldwide who cannot attend the conference in person to present their research in a pre-recorded format. We invite all presentations that contribute to the broad knowledge required to address current issues facing our oceans and selected talks will be grouped by topic to form a cohesive session. Presenters must submit a pre-recorded talk with contact information so viewers can follow up with questions.
*PhD students and non-tenured researchers <10 years since award of highest degree.
**including ethnic origin and ethnicity, disability, sex, gender, sexual orientation, geographic location, or any other component of identity underrepresented in science.
