 Balancing ocean conservation with sustainable livelihoods can be challenging. Healthy seas depend on meshworks of habitat. This episode looks at seagrass meadows and their part in maintaining ecological diversity and mitigating the effects of climate change. Seagrasses and oysters don’t often elicit the same intensity of interest as coral reefs; to most, they seem, by comparison, less vibrant, less full of colour and obvious life. But they have incredible ecological and cultural importance that we explore with our guests through their varied research and experiences, as we look across themes of ocean literacy and consider ways that art can facilitate difficult conversations about marine management.

Heidi McIlvenny is a PhD student at Queen’s University Belfast, where her multidisciplinary research focuses on seagrass habitats and their ecosystem services. Her professional experience includes roles with environmental organisations, where she established a community-led shark tagging programme and pioneered habitat restoration projects. She has also worked in consultancy capacities and with the Office for Environmental Protection. Currently, Heidi serves as a Director for the Irish Ocean Literacy Network.

Kian Louet-Feisser is the managing director of the Carlingford Oyster Company. His parents, Peter and Ann, started the company in the 1960s after sailing into Carlingford Lough in a wooden boat and becoming enchanted by the natural beauty of the place. The family business is now run by Kian, his wife Mary, and their children.

Suzanne Carroll is a visual artist based in Dundalk, currently leading a research project for Shifting Tides titled “The Fishery Exchange.” This initiative unites local artists and scientists with oyster producers to promote the regeneration and conservation of Carlingford Lough.

To learn more about ocean literacy and how it emphasises the reciprocity between humans and marine ecosystems, take a look at the Irish Ocean Literacy Network. You can find out more about seagrasses and ways to contribute to citizen science initiatives with Coastwatch. The Carlingford Oyster Company is located near Carlingford town.
