How to Protect the Ocean Podcast is proud to collaborate with Ocean Networks Canada (ONC) to launch a brand-new podcast series:
🌊 Surfacing Secrets – Explore the Ocean. Understand the Planet.
This special series explores the science, stories, and people behind one of the world’s most advanced ocean observatory systems. Together with ONC and Balad’EAU, we’re bringing you an exciting blend of interviews and immersive storytelling that spans the history, present, and future of ocean science.
🎙️ Episode 1: Mavericks and Visionaries
We start the series with the bold origin story of ONC — when real-time ocean data was just a radical idea. This episode features exclusive, full-length interviews with three of the visionaries who made it happen:
-
Kate Moran, President & CEO of Ocean Networks Canada
-
John Delaney, pioneering oceanographer and early champion of cabled observatories
-
Benoit Pirenne, ONC’s Corporate Innovation and Technology Officer
