Ocean Sciences Meeting 2026 (OSM) in Glasgow offered hundreds of science talks and town hall events, and had the added benefit of spontaneous networking opportunities while waiting in the epic-long queues for the coat check and food trucks. It would seem that sore feet and hoarse throats are a small price to pay for such …
With an overarching objective to advance the impact of sciences on a global scale, the Ocean Sciences Meeting (OSM) is a biennial conference that connects international ocean sciences communities. It facilitates the sharing of knowledge and results, productive discussions through town halls and open mike Q&As, and the collaborative prioritisation of key challenges. The 2026 …
An International Workshop The recent IOCR report highlighted a key knowledge gap in our understanding of the ocean carbon cycle as the role of ocean biological processes in storing carbon in the ocean interior. Within our international community, there is widespread interest in addressing this gap and understanding carbon processes, which can be seen in …
