Hi All! Join us in spreading the news - The launch of the Canadian Ocean Awareness Student Network (COAStNet) <http://canadianoceans.ca/>. The mission of COAStNet is to unite Canadian students and researchers in a network to enhance the communication of ocean science and to promote evidence-based ocean policy that ensures healthy and sustainable oceans. Take a few minutes to explore our new COAStNet website <http://canadianoceans.ca/>. It features blog posts, a marine research and marine policy video library, ocean-related research podcasts, and will provide links to related websites, organizations, and career websites. And this is just the beginning - we’d love to see this website and network grow to become a hub for people to find even MORE resources, and help communicate the cool and exciting research happening from coast to coast (to coast). This is a student-run network, so we need other researchers to help us build up this platform and share their exciting work widely. To get involved in the network, you can: - Explore and bookmark the COAStNet website <http://canadianoceans.ca/> - Watch <http://canadianoceans.ca/videos/>, share or create a short video <http://canadianoceans.ca/submit-a-video/> about your research or Canadian marine science or policy in general - Listen to <http://canadianoceans.ca/videos/podcasts/>, or create and upload a podcast <http://canadianoceans.ca/submit-a-video/> - Consider joining the team who run COAStNet - check out our list of positions <http://canadianoceans.ca/positions-available/> we hope to fill - Sign up for email for updates to be kept up to date as new content is added - Join our Facebook page <https://www.facebook.com/groups/243594295739873/> - Follow us and tweet us on Twitter @COAStNetCanada - Help expand our network by sharing the COAStNet website among your own networks Thanks for your interest and we hope that you will consider helping us expand and grow COAStNet. Your involvement will help to share research (including your own!) with other students, scientists, educators, and ocean enthusiasts across the country (and beyond). >From the COAStNet Steering Committee <http://canadianoceans.ca/the-crew/>
