What is the Ocean Twilight Zone (and How to Protect It) with Chris Dorsett
What is the Ocean Twilight Zone? Explore the mesopelagic (200–1000 m) and why it’s central to climate, fisheries, and biodiversity. Ocean Conservancy’s Chris Dorsett explains daily vertical migrations, lanternfish and vampire squid, and the biological carbon pump that shuttles carbon to the deep. We unpack emerging pressures—industrial harvest for fishmeal/fish oil, deep-sea mining plumes, and marine carbon-removal trials—and how science-based policy can safeguard this ecosystem before impacts stack up. Clear, accessible ocean science plus practical context on precautionary management make this a go-to primer for anyone curious about how mid-water life supports whales, tunas, and the health of our seas.Support our science communication by joining us on Patreon or sending us a gift on PayPalEpisode Guest: Chris DorsettLearn more about Chris Dorsett and Ocean Conservency hereRead Motion 035Follow the IUCN World Conference and find the full list of motions here Follow Ocean Conservancy on Instagram , Blue Sky, LinkedInEpisode Transcript and more information on the Pine Forest Media websiteFollow Pine Forest Media on Instagram @pineforestmediaHosted, produced, and edited by Clark Marchese Cover art by Jomiro EmingTheme music by Nela RuizFind some more Pine Forest Media podcasts below:Listen to South Pole on Spotify or Apple PodcastsListen to Plastic Podcast on Spotify or Apple PodcastsListen to Something in the Water on Spotify or Apple Podcasts Hosted on Acast.

Toothfish, Climate Genomics, and the Southern Ocean: South Pole Crossover with Dr. Jilda Caccavo
Antarctic fish with antifreeze blood are revealing critical clues about evolution and climate change. In this special crossover episode from South Pole, marine biologist Dr. Jilda Alicia Caccavo from the Institut Pierre Simon Laplace joins us to explore pelagic notothenioids — fish uniquely adapted to the icy waters of the Southern Ocean. Learn how their antifreeze proteins, colorless blood, and genomic traits help them survive extreme conditions, and why their future is under threat as ocean temperatures rise. Dr. Caccavo explains how genomics offers powerful insights into species vulnerability and resilience in a changing climate. If you're fascinated by cold-water biology, marine adaptation, or the impact of climate change on ocean life, this episode is for you.Support our science communication by joining us on Patreon or sending us a gift on PayPalEpisode Guest: Dr. Jilda CaccavoLearn more about Dr. Jilda Caccavo on her website Find more of Dr. Jilda Caccavo’s work on Google ScholarListen to South Pole on Spotify or Apple PodcastsEpisode Transcript and more information on the Pine Forest Media websiteFollow Pine Forest Media on Instagram @pineforestmediaHosted, produced, and edited by Clark Marchese Cover art by Jomiro EmingTheme music by Nela RuizListen to Plastic Podcast on Spotify or Apple PodcastsListen to Something in the Water on Spotify or Apple PodcastsCeiSt4WDIdvmC1xmWwmUyY6BQrpw3kt731yhHroD Hosted on Acast.

Spotting Pseudoscience - All Around Science Drop
How do you tell the difference between sound science and pseudoscience? In this special feed drop from All Around Science, we explore the red flags that signal when claims aren’t backed by real evidence — and how to think critically about the information we encounter every day.At Pine Forest Media, our mission is to make science more accessible, reliable, and engaging. That doesn’t just mean sharing discoveries from the ocean or Antarctica — it also means equipping listeners with the tools to recognize when science is being misrepresented. This episode is a valuable resource for anyone who cares about scientific literacy, public trust, and separating fact from fiction.Listen in for a practical, thoughtful conversation that will leave you better prepared to spot pseudoscience in the wild.Stream the All Around Science on Spotify or Apple PodcastsFind the All Around Science website hereMore information on the Pine Forest Media websiteFollow Pine Forest Media on Instagram @pineforestmediaHosted, produced, and edited by Clark Marchese Cover art by Jomiro EmingTheme music by Nela RuizListen to Plastic Podcast on Spotify or Apple PodcastsListen to South Pole on Spotify or Apple PodcastsListen to Something in the Water on Spotify or Apple Podcasts Hosted on Acast.

Coral Reefstoration Ghana: A New Dive Lab with George Amadou and David S. Kuwornu
Dive into Ghana’s coral future with Coral Reef Restoration Ghana, a nonprofit bringing new life to reefs and new opportunities to young scientists. Founder George Amadou and cinematographer David Selasi Kuwornu share how their groundbreaking Dive Lab—the first of its kind in Ghana—trains marine biology students to scuba dive, explore coral reefs, and capture stories through underwater film. We discuss the challenges of ocean access, cultural barriers around swimming, destructive fishing practices, and why media storytelling is essential for shifting mindsets toward conservation. This episode reveals how locally led initiatives can protect Ghana’s coral ecosystems while empowering the next generation of West African marine scientists and storytellers.Support our science communication by joining us on Patreon or sending us a gift on PayPalEpisode Guest: George Amadou and David Selasi KuwornuLearn more about Coral Reefstoration Ghana on their Instagram @coralreefsghFollow Coral Reefstoration Ghana on YouTubeListen to the Wiser World Podcast https://wiserworld.com/Episode Transcript and more information on the Pine Forest Media websiteFollow Pine Forest Media on Instagram @pineforestmediaHosted, produced, and edited by Clark Marchese Cover art by Jomiro EmingTheme music by Nela RuizFind some more Pine Forest Media podcasts below:Listen to South Pole on Spotify or Apple PodcastsListen to Plastic Podcast on Spotify or Apple PodcastsListen to Something in the Water on Spotify or Apple Podcasts Hosted on Acast.

Oceanography is a weekly marine science podcast exploring the latest ocean research, climate science, and environmental discoveries. From whale communication and underwater soundscapes to sustainable fishing gear and microplastic pollution, we dive deep into the science shaping our understanding of the world’s oceans. Each episode features conversations with marine biologists, oceanographers, and climate scientists working on the frontlines of ocean conservation and climate change. You'll learn about deep sea ecosystems, endangered species protection, and the powerful connections between ocean health and life on land. If you're passionate about the ocean, climate change, or environmental science—and want to hear directly from the researchers uncovering new insights—you’re in the right place.Oceanography is produced by Pine Forest Media, an independent podcast network focused on environmental research, science communication, and why it all matters.
