Our polar regions are often considered to be pristine untouched waters, largely due their remoteness and lack of civilization, yet both the Arctic and Antarctica are subject to local pollution from tourism, fishing and research activities. On today’s episode, we sit down with Sarah Reed, ships ops manager and technician at the Scottish Association for Marine Science, to chat about her recent paper on microplastics in marine sediments near Rothera Research Station, Antarctica.

Episode 4: A Safe Haven For Corals? with Amber Carter
Will there be a safe haven for corals in a changing ocean? Today on the the Women in Ocean Science podcast, hosts Mads and Charlie chat to PhD student, Amber Carter, about the potential for corals located on remote islands in the eastern tropical Pacific to be more likely to survive climate change. Tune in for an inspiring discussion on Amber’s most recent paper - which she lead-authored - on climate resilience, coral refugia and her experience as a young woman in marine science.
