Important document and well done Marine Direcorate
We have now published the updated Scottish Marine Energy Research (ScotMER) evidence maps: https://bit.ly/4cruCDX. These maps detail the gaps in the evidence surrounding the impacts of offshore renewable energy on the marine environment 🌊 . Scottish Government work with a range of internal and external experts to map out the gaps in existing evidence through the ScotMER receptor groups and ensure a shared common understanding of the research needs. In February, ScotMER ran their 6th annual Symposium, showcasing some of the most up to date research in this area. If you missed the event, you can now watch the recorded talks on the Marine Directorate YouTube channel here: https://bit.ly/4csCmpp.
