How an Unusual 'Bloom' Positively Affected Marine Life and the Atmosphere | Into the Blue Podcast
Phytoplankton, or marine algae, form the basis of the marine food chain and help to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere by using it to grow then being eaten or dying and falling as organic matter to the seafloor. Professor Meric Srokosz joins the podcast to take a look at a particular phytoplankton 'bloom' off the coast of Madagascar that occurred in late 2019 to early 2020 and how it potentially benefitted marine life and atmospheric carbon removal.Find out more about the study here - https://noc.ac.uk/news/south-african-drought-dust-fuelled-record-ocean-bloomSubscribe to Into the Blue on your preferred podcast platform or YouTube to ensure you don't miss out on future episodes - https://linktr.ee/nocintotheblue

Why Are Scientists Questioning Early 20th Century Sea Surface Temperatures? | Into the Blue Podcast
Observations of our ocean and climate have been recorded for hundreds of years, but compared to the methods of today, the process looks very differentâbut is the data collected by historical methods as accurate as it seems? NOC's Dr Elizabeth Kent MBE tells us all about the history of sea surface temperatures and how her research has helped answer questions surrounding an early 20th century cold feature that's been puzzling ocean experts for decades.Learn more about the study on our website - https://noc.ac.uk/news/scientists-solve-early-20th-century-cold-anomaly-puzzleElizabeth's MBE - https://noc.ac.uk/news/noc-scientist-dr-elizabeth-kent-recognised-mbeSubscribe to Into the Blue on your preferred podcast platform or YouTube to ensure you don't miss out on future episodes - https://linktr.ee/nocintotheblue

Marine Carbon Dioxide Removal: The Newest Climate Mitigation Technique | Into the Blue Podcast
The ocean acts as the planet's largest carbon reservoir and it's fundamentally important in regulating climate systems and atmospheric carbon dioxide. Dr Chris Pearce joins Dr Zoe Jacobs to learn more about the process, implementation and importance of marine carbon dioxide removal and how it's vital in the ongoing protection of our oceans, including some exciting projects currently underway.

How Can Scientists and Designers Collaborate to Protect Our Oceans? | Into the Blue Podcast & RCA Podcast
In 2024, representatives from the Royal College of Art (RCA) joined the National Oceanography Centre (NOC) on an expedition from Greenland to Iceland onboard Royal Research Ship James Cook, but what exactly was an art school doing in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean?
In this collaborative episode, Into the Blue Podcast and the Royal College of Art Podcast join together to explore the critical role of collaboration in tackling the challenges facing our oceans.
Professor Ashley Hall, Professor of Design and Innovation in the School of Design and Lead Researcher on NEMO (New Economic Model for the Ocean) at the RCA, is joined by Marine Biogeochemist and Biological Oceanographer Dr Filipa Carvalho. The pair discuss the unique partnership, how their projects are helping us to better understand climate tipping points, and the role of co-design processes that connect life on land with ocean systems to incorporate local knowledge and perspectives.

How Oceanographers and Geologists Found a LOST Tropical Island Near Brazil | Into the Blue Podcast
In 2018 a team of scientists, including some from NOC and the University of Sao Paulo, were studying the seafloor around a volcanic plateau known as the Rio Grande Rise when they made an incredible discovery. One of those experts, Professor Bramley Murton, joins the podcast to tell us all about the discovery and gives us the lowdown on what this mystery island might have looked like.
