@article { , title = {What natural and social scientists need from each other for effective marine environmental assessment: insights from collaborative research on the Tomakomai CCS demonstration project.}, abstract = {We propose actions to guide collaboration between ‘natural’ and ‘social’ science disciplines in marine environmental issues. Despite enthusiasm for interdisciplinarity on environmental issues, institutional and disciplinary barriers remain for interdisciplinary working in practice. This paper explores what natural and social scientists need from each other for more effective impact assessment in the marine environment. We reflect on collaboration between natural- (especially marine biology) and social scientists (especially environmental sociology) researching the Tomakomai CCS Demonstration Project in Japan; including subsequent expansion of the research team and wider evaluation of project outcomes. We identify two areas of mutual support: community and stakeholder engagement on marine monitoring; and identification of points in regulatory/policy processes where qualitative findings may gain traction alongside quantitative results. We suggest interdisciplinary collaboration for marine environmental research could be helped by making time to learn from each other within projects; and by working together more closely in the field.}, doi = {10.1016/j.marpolbul.2020.111520}, eissn = {1879-3363}, issn = {0025-326X}, journal = {Marine pollution bulletin}, note = {INFO COMPLETE (Info via Scopus alert 13/8/2020 LM) PERMISSION GRANTED (version = AAM; embargo = 12 months; licence = BY-NC-ND; SHERPA = http://v2.sherpa.ac.uk/id/publication/4653 ) DOCUMENT READY (AAM rec'd from contact 17/8/2020 LM) ADDITIONAL INFO - Contact Yi-Chen [Eva] Huang OA Funding - (May not meet both ESRC http://v2.sherpa.ac.uk/id/funder/717 and AHRC http://v2.sherpa.ac.uk/id/funder/698 requirements i.e. BY-NC-ND and both requires OA publishing, especially AHRC)}, publicationstatus = {Published}, publisher = {Elsevier}, url = {https://rgu-repository.worktribe.com/output/960512}, volume = {159}, keyword = {Impact assessment, Interdisciplinarity, Marine social science, Sub-seabed carbon dioxide storage}, year = {2020}, author = {Mabon, Leslie and Kita, Jun and Onchi, Hiromitsu and Kawabe, Midori and Katano, Toshiya and Kohno, Hiroshi and Huang, Yi-Chen} }
