À propos de cet audio

UK marine research is at a special moment in time. We have a window of opportunity to persuade the government of the benefits that come from understanding the ocean, and of the importance of investing in the infrastructure we rely on to carry out our vital work - that's ships, buoys, satellites, autonomous vehicles, and more.

The Future Marine Research Infrastructure (FMRI) programme is trying to secure that funding, ensuring we can plan and carry out critical ocean research for the next 20 - 30 years.

But, what actually is FMRI? How does it work? And why do we all need to get involved in the process?

In this new four-part podcast series, join ocean scientist and broadcaster Dr. Helen Czerski as she speaks with key voices from across the ocean research community, from the head of FMRI to fellow marine researchers, and even a space scientist with experience navigating large-scale project funding.

Together, they unpick the biggest questions facing UK marine research today: What does the future of ocean research look like on a changing planet? How can we balance the carbon emissions of ships while committing to net zero? Will autonomous vehicles really replace the need for scientists to go to sea? How will we manage all that data? And, most importantly, how can we work together to secure the funding required to keep doing crucial research?

Be part of the conversation - questions, comments, and concerns submitted to www.FMRI.ac.uk by the 20th of May will be brought to the FMRI team and answered on the final episode.

  • Imagining the future of UK ocean research
    May 14 2025

    Rapid changes in technology mean that the way we do oceans research is always developing, whether that's using gliders to collect data or just being able to answer emails while on an expedition. But how can we ensure these changes make efficient use of our time, technology, and international collaborators?Join ocean scientist and broadcaster Dr Helen Czerski as she sits down with:

    • Leigh Storey, the senior responsible owner for FMRI
    • Professor Kate Hendry, British Antarctic Survey
    • Professor Yueng-Djern Lenn, Bangor University

    Together, they discuss the results of the  net zero oceanographic capability project and imagine the future of oceans research.

  • How do we design for the future?
    May 7 2025

    FMRI is a big project with lots of big ideas on the table, so what actually has to happen to make them a reality? What's the current status of our marine research infrastructure, and how can we think about trade-offs when designing technology for the future?

    Join ocean scientist and broadcaster Dr Helen Czerski as she sits down with:

    • Leigh Storey, the senior responsible owner for FMRI
    • Sophie Fielding, Zooplankton ecologist from the British Antarctic Survey
    • Maaten Furlong, Associate Director of the National Marine Facilities at the National Oceanography Centre

    Together, they dig into the practicalities of securing funding for the next few decades of ocean research, and discuss whether there really is a battle between ships and autonomous vehicles.
