Summary
🤩
RockstarScott Veirs is a bioacoustician and oceanographer based in Seattle with a decade of experience applying acoustic science, citizen science, and automation to Pacific Northwest marine conservation. He leads efforts in research, teaching, and consulting focused on recovering iconic species like southern resident killer whales and Chinook salmon and on distributing ocean observatory data through platforms such as Orca Sound. His work bridges hands-on field programs—integrating renewable energy technologies into boat-based education—and exploratory engineering, including investigating liquid fuels derived from phytoplankton. Comfortable translating complex environmental data into actionable insights, he blends technical rigor with public engagement to advance both science and stewardship. An often-overlooked strength is his knack for turning community-collected sound data into scalable analysis pipelines that inform policy and recovery efforts.
