Marine microbial oceanographer Dr. Alice Ortmann explains why baseline ocean data are essential for detecting change around offshore oil and gas activity near Newfoundland. Learn what counts as an oil spill, how oil and methane move through the water, and how marine microbes help researchers assess deep sea ecosystem health, pollution risk, and environmental response before and after an incident.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Support</strong> our science communication by joining us on <a href=\"https://patreon.com/PineForestMedia?utm_medium=unknown&amp;utm_source=join_link&amp;utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&amp;utm_content=copyLink\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Patreon</a> or sending us a gift on <a href=\"https://www.paypal.biz/pineforestmedia\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">PayPal</a></p><p><br></p><p>Special thanks to the <a href=\"https://www.montereybayaquarium.org/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Monterey Bay Aquarium</a> for sponsoring this episode.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Episode Guests</strong>: Dr. Alice Ortmann</p><p>Connect with Dr. Ortamnn on<a href=\"http://linkedin.com/in/alice-ortmann-38384399\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> LinkedIn</a></p><p>Find Dr. Ortmann’s publications on <a href=\"https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=dmFRIEUAAAAJ&amp;hl=en\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Google Scholar</a></p><p>Visit the <a href=\"https://marinemicrobiome.org/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Marine Microbiome Forum</a></p><p><br></p><p>Episode Transcript&nbsp;and more information on the <a href=\"http://pineforestpods.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Pine Forest Media </a>website</p><p>Follow Pine Forest Media on Instagram <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/pineforestmedia/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@pineforestmedia</a></p><p>Hosted, produced, and edited by Clark Marchese&nbsp;</p><p>Cover art by<a href=\"https://jomiro.webflow.io/about\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> Jomiro Eming</a></p><p>Theme music by <a href=\"http://nelaruizcomposer.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Nela Ruiz</a></p><p><br></p><p>Find some more Pine Forest Media podcasts below:</p><p>Listen to South Pole on <a href=\"https://open.spotify.com/show/292f9HcD3eCI2V6hLQG2Hi?si=j0TSZkmgQNWy4WCPfNHMXQ\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Spotify</a> or <a href=\"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/south-pole/id1748730442\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Apple Podcasts</a></p><p>Listen to Plastic Podcast on <a href=\"https://open.spotify.com/show/4Iv20PynWeNKEZtq5O5UOj?si=MW-ZYI8zS0mUroec9T_lfA\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Spotify</a> or <a href=\"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/plastic-podcast/id1737963995\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Apple Podcasts</a></p><p>Listen to Something in the Water on <a href=\"https://open.spotify.com/show/5HGQytPxV6FfcX03OUBXYf?si=YszhS8C4ToafplCEsEErAQ\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Spotify</a> or <a href=\"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/something-in-the-water/id1740586381\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Apple Podcasts</a></p>","author_name":"Pine Forest Media | Environmental Science Podcasts"}
