A new paper, in co-operation with the #BalticComplete project, is out! The paper examines spatial patterns and temporal trends of aquatic non-indigenous species detections since 1965 to inform conservation policy and management: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

Here it comes: A paper that summarizes almost everything you have always wanted to know about the use of #BayesianNetworks in #Environmental #RiskAssessment #ERA studies! Hope you'll find it useful. 😊

#SIMREC project will develop simulators to improve cross-border oil spill response in extreme conditions FEM Research Group / UH Ecosystems & Environment Research Programme Xamk Finnish Environment Institute (Syke) @AaltoENG St. Petersburg Marine Technical University & Admiral Makarov institute.

How can #Bayesiannetworks (BNs) support #maritime #oilspill #riskassessment?🚢⚓️🌊 In our new study, we demonstrate how BNs aid robust decision making even in the case of systemic and multi-layered risks, such as oil spill risks.

Only one day to go before the Final Conference of the #BalticComplete project! Welcome to join us on 9-10 February! More information about the event at the link below: balticcomplete.com/news/final-con… #alienspecies #ballastwater #biofouling #NIS

Final Conference presentations of the #BalticComplete project have now been uploaded to the web! Thank you for the questions and comments during the conference, and welcome to revisit the recorded event at: balticcomplete.com/news/final-con… #alienspecies #ballastwater #biofouling #NIS

The latest scientific article from the Kotka Maritime Research Centre research community presents a socio-eco-technical #systems #analysis of #ship.s' #biofouling management. Causal graphical representation of the multi-sectoral multi-objective problem provided! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Exciting times! Another #PhD thesis defence within a month Kotka Maritime Research Centre network: @laurakaikkonen defends her thesis "Risks out of depth? A study on the environmental impacts of seabed mining" University of Helsinki on Fri 29.10. at 13:00. Info & Zoom link: hy.etapahtuma.fi/Kalenteri/Engl…

One of the novelties of the PhD thesis of @laurakaikkonen: FeMn #concretions occur on 11 % of the Finnish sea area, which is more than all EU #HabitatDirective Annex I habitats together (which cover 6 %) #seabedmining #environmentalrisks SmartSea Project frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

Sometimes a young scientist comes along whose work is so original that we run out of superlatives to congratulate them. Well done @laurakaikkonen on a brilliant PhD and finally a real karonkka party :) yle.fi/uutiset/3-1215…

Meribiologi @laurakaikkonen väitötutkimus University of Helsinki pohti, miten arvokkaiden metallisaostumien kaivaminen merien pohjalta vaikuttaisi ekosysteemiin. Näitä kaivamisen seurauksia tunnetaan vielä huonosti. #bytdk #viikinkampus #tutkimus #meri #ekosysteemi yle.fi/uutiset/3-1215…

Our warmest congratulations to @laurakaikkonen for a successful #PhD #Thesis defence University of Helsinki last Friday! Read more about Laura's thesis on the #environmental #impacts and #risks of #seabed #mining: merikotka.fi/doctoral-disse…

Congratulations @laurakaikkonen and the supervisors Kirsi kostamo @UusitaloLaura & Sakari Kuikka ! Such an interesting thesis and what a great discussion with the opponent Dr. Anna Metaxas we heard on Friday. The thesis is part of the results from SmartSea Project.

What type of models best support the governance of complex risks? In our new paper on oil spill risks&models in the GoF for #oilspillresponse, we highlight the need to integrate diverse risk perceptions and interdisciplinary knowledge in #riskmodelling sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Really appreciate this great paper on the need to raise public awareness about #deepseamining. We may not know much about the deep sea, but do we care about mining it? besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10… @i_vanputten @laurakaikkonen
