Making waves in unmapped oceans and uncertain times. With Dr. Jyotika Virmani.

TOA ON AIR

75% of the Earth’s oceans remain unmapped… and we know Mars better than we know our planet. The exponential development of tech has superseded expectations for oceans and climate. Did you know in late 2015, it was estimated that it would take 200-600 years to map the ocean floor in high resolution? Now, only 6 years later, we’re expecting the results in only 10 years.

Dr. Jyotika Virmani, Director of the Schmidt Ocean Institute, joins Niko Woischnik, founder of TOA, on this week’s episode. Jyotika is the “ocean influencer”, and holds the notion of storytelling, hope, and showcasing the beauty of the ocean to keep our planet alive.

Jyotika and Niko deep-dive into Seaspiracy, biodiversity, how the pandemic has affected our onlook of science and exploration, and how the Schmidt Ocean Institute discovered a new coral on the Great Barrier Reef?! Enjoy!
