London Gatwick Gears Up for Bumper Summer Peak with More New Airlines and Destinations
By Stephanie Wear, VP Aviation Development at London Gatwick Summer season is in full-swing at London Gatwick – even if, as I write this, the weather doesn’t appear to have received the memo! The UK’s topsy-turvy climate is just one factor keeping the demand to jet off on holiday sky-high. Last year at London Gatwick, we welcomed more than 40 million passengers.
Stephanie Wear talks Gatwick's long haul plans
Head of Operations Cairns Airport As Head of Operations, Alicia Prince has played a critical role in leading and navigating Cairns Airport through the COVID-19 pandemic.

The deep sea must be protected, not plundered
The deep sea is mysterious and beautiful. At 1,000 meters, sunlight dissipates and blue turns to black. Temperatures hover near freezing. The pressure is crushing, like the inside of a trash compactor. The marine life is otherworldly.

These pristine ecosystems could be home to 10 million unique species — most of which have yet to be discovered.
Waste smothering our oceans is worth billions - here’s what we can do with all that sh$t
In electronics, Moore's law is an established theory that computing power doubles every 18 months. Is there any parallel to be drawn with genetic technologies? The increase in speed and decrease in costs of genome sequencing have progressed far faster than Moore’s law. It took thirteen years and cost about a billion dollars to sequence the first human genome. Today it takes just a few hours and can cost as little as a hundred dollars to do a far better job.

OPINION: What are the opportunities for Gatwick following the pandemic?
Stephanie Wear, Gatwick’s new head of aviation development, discusses the gradual return of long-haul flights and the potential held by the airport’s Northern Runway Project It is no secret that the aviation industry has been particularly hard hit by the pandemic and the UK has lagged behind other regions, which have started to rebound more quickly. However, I believe that the next 12 months have the potential to be incredibly exciting for Gatwick Airport.

The Year in Ecology and Conservation Biology
Coral reefs are exposed to a multitude of stressors emanating from human activities7–10 and, as a result, have experienced drastic declines in spatial coverage and diversity over the past 50 years.7,8 At a regional level in the Indo-Pacific, live coral cover has declined at an annual rate of 1% from the early 1980s to 2003, while in the Caribbean, the annual rate of coral cover loss was 1.5% between 1977 and 2001.11 Recent work cataloging the status of reefs has estimated that we have...
Doubling down on coral reefs
By Stephanie Wear, Lead Scientist for coral reef conservation at The Nature Conservancy We could be heading for the largest coral bleaching event ever recorded. No, I’m not a Pollyanna. And I believe we need to take this event seriously. But I also don’t believe it’s the end of the world as we know it – or even the end of coral reefs. If you work in reef conservation, it’s hard to miss the stories of coral bleaching.
