1 Dunstaffnage, Oban Scotland September 20-22, 2016 Global Marine Sustainability Workshop Arctic Seas and Gulf of Mexico

2 Develop interdisciplinary academic, research and private partnerships to advance science and support industry workforce development needs by strengthening the understanding between Arctic and Gulf of Mexico marine environments.

3 1.Build an international educational pathway for faculty and students to strengthen the intellectual capital supporting targeted workforce sectors; 2.Generate educational and professional development training content in the area of marine science to share among participating institutions and partners for academic and workforce development; 3.Develop global research collaborations and expenditures among prominent marine institutes and industry that recognizes the interconnectivity between the Arctic and Gulf of Mexico to advance science and technology commercialization, support sustainable policy decisions and promote economic development; 4.Foster international, multi-institutional, interdisciplinary research collaborations for innovative autonomous technologies that manage and model changes in diverse aquatic, terrestrial and aerial ecosystems; and 5.Develop improved aquaculture practices for sustainable fisheries, food security and invasive species detection and impact.

4 All Industries Industry will offer input on academic programs that prepare graduates for the workforce with marketable skills through relevant coursework, internships and experiential learning opportunities Academic institutions and research centers will provide advanced degree and training programs for industry employees to increase corporate marketability and competitiveness Oil and gas Work with industry to research best practices for sustainable petroleum exploration, drilling and enhanced recovery from marine reservoirs Provide industry innovative science driven approaches for efficient energy acquisition utilizing safe and cost effective environmental protocol Autonomous systems and Remote Sensing Develop integrated unmanned underwater vehicles (UUV), unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) and remotely operated vehicles (ROV) with robust sensor suites to advance marine, terrestrial and aerial remote sensing capabilities for environmental assessment and monitoring as well as energy exploration and capture Collaborate with industry to develop software to improve capture and analysis of remotely sensed data Aquaculture and fisheries Generate best practices for sustainable global fisheries and aquaculture food security
