Tom Williams and Joanna represented us excellently at this years AIMS meeting for our ECOWind Bowie project! It was fabulous to hear what all the other projects are doing. @ProfBenthos UoS OES University of Southampton

Today I presented some of the work we’ve been doing as part of the BOWIE project ECOWind, highlighting the impacts of substrate-borne vibrations on marine invertebrate species 🦞🦀. It was great to share this experience with some other colleagues from University of Hull too!

Great to hear updates about the scientific findings of the ECOWind projects and learn about how they could be used to inform policy objectives. I presented a poster highlighting how we plan to use trait-based approaches to document ecosystem change within OWF. CDT SuMMeR

Wind energy is a key pillar in the UK Government’s decarbonisation targets, and one of the biggest challenges is how this can be done sustainably. Find out how the ECOWind and ECOFlow projects are helping on #OceanHorizons 📝 blogs.noc.ac.uk/ocean-horizon/…
