  1. OSG Powerpoint presentation tips You may use any of the slides on the following pages for your own presentation, and/or create your own slides using this template. Delete the ones that are not appropriate and re-save your presentation with a new name. • To create your own slides, choose New Slide, and use this template design for formatting text, with styles, positions, and colors as shown here. Always use Calibri as your font. • Your presentation will look most professional if type styles and colors are consistent from slide to slide, and headlines are at the same height, not bouncing up and down. • Keep text blocks short and easy to read. Don’t put copy too close to either edge or the bottom. • Use round bullets. • Use shadows on pictures. Don’t use shadows on text. • Contact Patricia Andersson if you have questions about this template or want feedback on your presentation. If you need photos, contact OSG Communications, who may be able to help.

  2. The Oregon Sea Grant Program • What is Sea Grant? • How does it work? • How can we partner?

  3. Oregon Sea Grant Mission Coastal Science Serving Oregon

  4. Mission • To develop and support an integrated program of research, outreach, and education that help people understand, rationally use, and conserve marine and coastal resources. Our activities respond to the needs of ocean users and act to stimulate the Oregon economy.

  5. Oregon Sea Grant • Pre-eminent marine research enterprise funding research throughout Oregon • Address issues of high importance and societal relevance in an integrated way • Guided by an ethic of public service supported by cadre of professional communicators, educators, and Extension faculty • Neutral brokers of information

  6. Program Integration One Sea Grant Education: Formal & Free-choice Communications Extension Program Development and Partnerships Research Extension Extension

  7. The Grants Process Tsunamis Coastal observations Fish Toxic algae Floods Hypoxia Invasive species Marine science literacy Climate Two main criteria: • Societal relevance • Scientific excellence

  8. Current Research Examples Toward Biological Control of Toxic Algal Blooms: Genetic Characterization of Toxin-producing Cyanobacteria and Their Infecting Viruses in the Klamath River System Theo Dreher, Department of Microbiology, OSU Interannual and Geographic Trends in Catches of Albacore along the West Coast of North America William Pearcy, College of Oceanic and Atmospheric Sciences, OSU Fishermen in Ocean Observing Research R. Kipp Shearman, College of Oceanic and Atmospheric Sciences, OSU Impacts of Climate Change on Coastal Flood Risk Assessments Peter Ruggiero, Department of Geosciences, OSU

  9. Sea Grant Extension: Neutral Broker

  10. Sea Grant Extension: • bringing stakeholder parties together face-to-face, to foster trust and mutual understanding   • translating the information, to ensure that it makes sense to everyone involved • facilitating collaboration, to foster transparent dialogue and effective working relationships • mediating, to ensure that everyone’s interests are fairly represented

  11. State-Federal Partnership

  12. 2009 Oregon Sea Grant Funding Sources

  13. National Sea Grant Priorities 2009–13 Four Focus Areas: Hazard-resilient Coastal Communities Healthy Coastal Ecosystems Sustainable Coastal Development Safe, Sustainable Seafood Supply Cross-cutting Themes: Better understanding of human-ecosystem interactions More knowledgeable citizens Improved management and decision-making

  14. Oregon Strategic Priorities This year we are conducting an underway process to develop a strategic plan. Oregon Sea Grant’s 2009–13 priorities, under development: • Resilient Communities • Informed and Engaged Society • Healthy Marine Systems

  15. Government-University Partnerships The University The Government

  16. Major Partnerships • Federal: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration • Network: National Sea Grant College Program • Regional: Pacific Sea Grant College Programs • • State (examples): Governor's Natural Resources Office and Departments of Agriculture; Fish and Wildlife, Land Conservation and Development; State Lands • Academic: Oregon State University, Oregon University System • Local: County governments, special districts, ports

  17. Partnership Projects: Agencies Department of State Lands (DSL), Department of Fish & Wildlife (ODFW) Marine reserves Coastal community engagement through listening and learning [Goblirsch, Feldner] Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD) Wave energy [Conway, Hildenbrand] Community preparation for climate change [Cone, Corcoran] Coastal erosion video (Living on the Edge) [Cone] Department of Agriculture Invasive species education and outreach [Chan] Oregon Innovation Council, the Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board FishTrax—genetics, geography, chain of custody, consumer [Feldner]

  18. Other Partnerships: Fellowships Supported Current Fellowships: Oregon Legislative FellowshipAnna Pakenham (with Coastal Caucus) Oregon Sea Grant Natural Resource Policy FellowshipJunaHickner (with ODFW) Oregon Water Resources Department and Sea Grant Extension Well Water Resources FellowshipAbby Brown (with OWRD)

  19. Other Oregon Partnerships: Leadership Ocean Policy Advisory Council, Scientific and Technical Advisory Committee (chair) Oregon Invasive Species Council (statutory member)

  20. Regionalization • Ecosystem perspective • National and state priorities • Builds on each others strengths and broadens resource capabilities and user network

  21. West Coast Regional Research and Information Plan • Sea Grant programs in Washington, Oregon, and California in collaboration with state, federal and tribal agencies assessed the marine/coastal research and information needs of a diverse range of stakeholders across the region to help inform priorities of agencies and research institutions. • Supported by and supportive of West Coast Governors’ Agreement • Broad stakeholder participation: 3 states, 16 workshops, 1,000 participants, 5,200 comments

  22. West Coast Regional Research and Information Plan continued Public report to be released in June identifies eight major topics and three cross-cutting themes: Research and Information Topics • Vitality of Coastal Communities and Maritime Infrastructure • Ocean Governance and Management of Multiple Uses • Fisheries and Aquaculture • Marine Ecosystem Structure and Function • Ocean Health and Stressors • Physical Ocean Processes, Related Climate Change and Physical Coastal Hazards • Water Quality and Pollution • Resilience and Adaptability to Hazards and Climate Change Cross-cutting Themes • Climate Change • Ocean Education and Environmental Literacy • Access to Information and Data

  23. Strengths and Opportunities • Integration of research, extension, education • Close ties to NOAA • Close ties to coastal communities • Regional/national network • Statewide university responsibilities • Reputation as honest broker of information • Can serve as a catalyst for new ideas

  24. New Opportunities

  28. Drivers of Ecosystem Change Pollution Invasive Species Climate Change Extreme Natural Events Resource and Land Use

  29. This will require: • Research that is more focused on Forcing rather than Impacts • Research that is focused on Prediction rather than explanation • New breakthroughs in our understanding at the boundaries between disciplines (including physical-chemical-biological-societal interfaces), • Improved technologies to expand the time, space and parameter scales that we observe the ecosystem • Changes in training the next generation of scientists
