Why is collaboration so important for marine renewables? This question is discussed in our latest podcast by international experts in marine scour, Richard Whitehouse and John Harris. They illustrate their points with some fascinating examples and share insights from their many years at the heart of the industry.

In this podcast, Dr Ian Chandler and Professor Tiziana Rossetto talk about how we’ve been working since the 2004 Boxing Day Tsunami to help protect vulnerable communities from future tsunamis.

We’ve developed tsunami simulators that have led to a greater understanding of how the waves interact with the coastline and buildings, and directly fed into the codes of practice that are now being implemented by engineers. There’s still more that can be done, however. Listen in to learn about our future plans.

In the final instalment of our energy futures series, Mike Case discusses the challenges and potential solutions for carbon capture and storage (CCS). He highlights the logistical difficulties of transporting liquefied carbon dioxide and cost barriers to making CCS a reality.

Why might water be crucial to solar energy? In the third of our Energy Futures miniseries, Mike Case explains how our expertise could help unlock a global solar energy market and fuel the energy transition.

Dredging is changing its image. Giulia Sforzi, Jeremy Spearman and Mark Lee highlight how dredging can provide win-win biodiversity solutions, and why the future is bright for sustainable dredging. Jez also elucidates an innovative project for Harwich Haven Authority to create habitat.

In the second of our four-part Energy Futures series, Mike Case and Sally Jackson discuss the potential of nuclear energy to help meet future energy demands.

They explore: why water is important to nuclear and the challenges presented by climate change, including sea level rise and increased rainfall. They also discuss the potential of small modular reactors (SMRs) as a cost-effective and innovative solution.

In the first of our four-part Energy Futures series, Mike Case and Sally Jackson discuss the industrialisation of floating wind.

They explore the opportunities and challenges of building floating offshore wind farms, including scaling up port operations and the need for suitable areas for storage.

Space technology is not just about exploring the far reaches of the galaxy, but also has huge potential to help us with problems closer to home.

Special guest, Ray Fielding of the UK Space Agency, Darren Lumbroso, Gina Tsarouchi and Quillon Harpham join Sally Jackson to explore how Earth Observations can help answer age-old questions, improve lives and safeguard our world.

They also delve into where the future lies for the smart use of new datasets in the sectors we work in.
