The Barents Sea ecoregion - the part of the World Ocean north of the Nordic countries and Northwest Russia, has a unique environment with major sea bird colonies, rich benthic and plankton fauna and many major sea mammal species. Within this ecoregion, this graphic illustrates the existing coverage of protected areas. One of the main threats to the region is the development associated with the expansion of fossil fuel extraction activities. Russia and Norway are expanding new fields, and traffic is expected to increase. As illustrated, there are few marine protected areas, and few that are coastal.

We went out mapping, or more precisely doing aerial photography, flying a digital camera under a nice big green balloon from the green of Goldsmiths University. The MA is Design at Goldsmiths has an option called “Design & Environment” supervised by Prof Jennifer Gabrys. It is a course that initiates students to alternatives design and environmental methods and pratices. This hands-on experiment was lead by Cesar Harada acting both as Goldsmiths tutor and Public Laboratory instructor. The mappers -who are also the authors of this post- were Anuja Uttamrao Borker, Inessa Demidova, Shan-Yu Hsu, Dk Hajah Hazwani Pg Dato Haji Jaberudin, Federica Sterpos, Chian-Yun Yang, Yifan Zhang, Elvira Grob.

An osprey perches on a dilapidated piling near the Manchester Bridge on the James River in downtown Richmond, Va., on Aug. 13, 2019. Like many cities on the eastern seaboard, Richmond was established along the fall line, the area of geological transition between coastal plain and Piedmont, where rivers often have a steeper gradient and become too rocky for large vessels. Cities like Richmond became the terminus for ships carrying goods as far as they could upstream. (Photo by Will Parson/Chesapeake Bay Program)

An aerial view taken by Greenpeace on September 19, 2006 shows steam rising and mud flowing out of the central exploratory oil well operated by local company Lapindo Brantas in Sidoarjo in Indonesia's East Java province. Environmental group Greenpeace on September 27, 2006 dumped 700 kg (1,540 lb) of mud at Indonesia's welfare ministry in protest over the government's handling of a mudflow disaster that has swamped four villages over an area larger than Monaco, displacing more than 10,000 people. Lapindo Brantas has denied the mud is directly linked to the drilling operation. NO ARCHIVES NO SALES REUTERS/Vinai/Greenpeace/Handout (INDONESIA)

A bridge replacement on Choconut Creek, intended to improve flood resiliency in an area prone to flash flooding, is seen in Vestal, N.Y., on Aug. 30, 2019. The bridge, which was due for replacement, is being raised to mitigate the flood risk for homes upstream and to allow the bridge to remain usable during floods. According to Broome County senior planner Beth Lucas, the project was identified through the county's Watershed-Based Flood Hazard Mitigation Analysis that identified projects to mitigate flooding in priority watersheds. "We were able to make sure that these were complementary projects in some way that improved the overall resiliency of our area as a whole rather than in isolation," Lucas said.
