SUMMARY:Event: Discovering Our Humanity at the Bottom of the Sea
DESCRIPTION:Join "Ocean Doctor" David E. Guggenheim in Philadelphia on Friday\, March 26\, 2010 \nAt Philadelphia’s historic Congregation Rodeph Shalom synagogue\, the Dr. Bernard & Rose Susan Hirschhorn Behrend Lecture presents Dr.  David E. Guggenheim\, president of 1planet1ocean\, a project of The Ocean  Foundation. Dr. Guggenheim\, the “Ocean Doctor\,” an ocean explorer\, sub  pilot and conservationist\,will share his firsthand experiences from  Alaska’s Bering Sea to Cuba’s tropical depths\, providing a glimpse into a  world seldom seen and reflections on our own humanity from the unique  perspective beneath the sea. \n  \n Philadelphia native\, Dr. David E. Guggenheim is a marine scientist\, conservation policy specialist\, submarine pilot and ocean explorer. He is president of 1planet1ocean in Washington\, DC\, a project of The Ocean Foundation where he is a Senior Fellow and director of its Cuba Marine Research and Conservation Program. He is currently leading a major project to elevate collaboration in marine science and conservation among Cuba\, Mexico and the U.S. to a new level and leading the first-ever comprehensive research and conservation program in Cuba’s Gulf of Mexico region\, a joint effort with the University of Havana. \nPhiladelphia native\, Dr. David E. Guggenheim\, the "Ocean Doctor" \nAlso known as the ?Ocean Doctor? and host of the ExpeditionCasts podcast series\, Dr. Guggenheim is currently engaged in a special ?expedition? to all fifty U.S. states visiting schools and bringing special programs about ocean exploration and conservation to young students.

SUMMARY:Cuba's Offshore Oil Development ? Radio Discussion on NPR-WGCU
DESCRIPTION:Tune in to NPR station WGCU (Southwest Florida) on Wednesday\, August 26\, 2009 at noon Eastern/9am Pacific. Dr. David E. Guggenheim\, the “Ocean Doctor\,” will be part of a radio discussion on “Gulf Coast Live\,” for a program focused on oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico\, and specifically\, the fact that Cuba is now rapidly pursuing the development of its oil resources in the Gulf following the discovery of a major oil reserve there in 2004. \nFrom WGCU: “The battle lines have been drawn and the fight over oil in the Gulf deepens. We’ll take a closer look at the pros and cons of drilling – we’ll hear from both sides as to whether or not it can solve our oil and gas dependency and whether it’s even safe. Also on the show – Cuba is ready to begin drilling off its northern coast. It may start leasing to companies willing to drill for oil by the end of next year. Is Cuba’s oil demand going to affect Florida’s waters?“ \nListen to the archived broadcast at WGCU.

SUMMARY:Event: A New Era for U.S.-Cuba Relations on Marine and Coastal Resources Conservation
DESCRIPTION:Event Summary\nCuba sits at the convergence of the Atlantic Ocean\, Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico. Its coastal waters are dense with islets\, keys and reefs that provide critical habitats and spawning grounds for a rich array of fish\, endangered sea turtles\, manatees and other marine life. Preserving Cuba’s biodiversity is critically important to the natural resources and economies of coastal communities in the United States and other neighboring countries. \nActive scientific and management cooperation is needed to address the growing threats to Cuba’s biodiversity including coral reefs\, migratory bird habitats\, marine mammals and turtles\, and biodiversity shared throughout the region. Greater communication and collaboration among scientists\, conservation professionals and government agencies could benefit both the United States and Cuba\, as well as the shared ecosystems that link both nations. \nOn April 28\, the Brookings Institution and the Environmental Defense Fund will host a discussion on U.S.-Cuba relations on marine and coastal resources conservation. Steve Hamburg\, chief scientist for the Environmental Defense Fund\, will offer introductory remarks. Brookings Visiting Fellow Vicki Huddleston\, former head of the U.S. Interests Section in Havana\, will give the keynote address. Scott Edwards of the Environmental Defense Fund will moderate a discussion featuring a panel of experts. After the program\, the panelists will take audience questions. \nAdditional information and online registration \nEvent Information \nWhen: \nTuesday\, April 28\, 2009\n2:00 PM to 5:30 PM \nWhere:\nFalk Auditorium\nThe Brookings Institution\n1775 Massachusetts Ave.\, NW\nWashington\, DC \nContact:\nBrookings Office of Communications\nE-mail: events@brookings.edu\nPhone: 202.797.6105 \nParticipants \nIntroduction\nSteve Hamburg\nChief Scientist\, Environmental Defense Fund\n\nKeynote Address\nVicki Huddleston\nVisiting Fellow\, Foreign Policy \nPanelists\nDr. David Guggenheim\nPresident\, 1Planet1 Ocean \nDr. Robert Hueter\nSenior Scientist and Director\, Center for Shark Research\, Mote Marine Lab \nRobert L.

SUMMARY:The State of Cuba's Coral Reefs
DESCRIPTION:Initial results of joint Cuba-U.S. study to be presented at the 11th International Coral Reef Symposium (ICRS) in Ft. Lauderdale\, July 7-11\, 2008 \nThe world’s major coral reef science meeting\, the International Coral Reef Symposium (ICRS)\, returns to the United States July 7-11\, 2008\, to be held in Ft. Lauderdale. Dr. Gaspar Gonz?lez Sans?n\, Titular Professor at the University of Havana’s Center for Marine Research (Centro de Investigaciones Marinas [CIM]) is scheduled to be the lead presenter of a paper entitled\, Present Condition of Coral Reefs and Associated Ecosystems in the Northwest Region of Cuba. \nThe University of Havana’s Center for Marine Research (CIM) [Centro de Investigaciones Marinas] and the Harte Research Institute for Gulf of Mexico Studies (HRI) at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi are leading a collaborative effort\, Proyecto Costa Noroccidental [Project of the Northwest Coast]\, a comprehensive multi-year research and conservation program for Cuba’s Gulf of Mexico coast. Dr. David E. Guggenheim\, president of 1planet1ocean\, is a member of HRI’s Advisory Council and also serves as HRI’s Cuba Programs Manager and is co-principal investigator of the project with Dr. Gaspar Gonz?lez Sans?n of CIM. \nProyecto Costa Noroccidental is the first comprehensive study of Cuba’s Gulf of Mexico region and is providing insights into the health of Cuban coral reefs which may provide important clues for conservation of coral reefs elsewhere. The ICRS is held every four years with sanctioning by the International Society of Reef Studies.ICRS is devoted to the best reef science available\, with the purpose of sharing scientific findings with government agencies\, resource management\, and non-government organizations throughout the world. Previous ICRS have been held in Okinawa (2004)\, Bali (2000)\, Panama (1996)\, Guam (1992)\, Australia (1988)\, Tahiti (1985)\, the Philippines (1980)\, Miami (1977)\, Australia (1974)\, and the first ICRS in India (1969).
