Did you know that jellyfish are among the oldest species on Earth? 🌊 From their unique biology to their potential in medicine and sustainability, researchers are exploring how jellyfish can benefit us. ଳ Watch the full report 👉 t.ly/-DmY6 #Ocean w/ EU Maritime & Fish

In Larnaca, Nikhil Thomas from CMMI - Cyprus Marine and Maritime Institute explained me how #photogrammetry helps create detailed 3D models of #coral reefs to monitor their health over time — a vital tech to understand the impact of marine heatwaves on fragile ecosystems. 📺ᴏᴄᴇᴀɴ by euronews & EU Maritime & Fish

Underwater sensors in #Cyprus constantly record sea temperatures, giving a clear picture of ongoing warming. 🌊🔥 Louis Hadjioannou, marine ecologist at CMMI - Cyprus Marine and Maritime Institute, told me he expects many local corals to die this season based on the data. 📺ᴏᴄᴇᴀɴ by euronews & EU Maritime & Fish

Pierre Bahurel is the DG of Mercator Ocean International — it develops software to model and forecast key ocean features using Copernicus Marine data. Their weekly bulletin provides sea users with early warnings of marine heatwaves and supports policymaking. 📺ᴏᴄᴇᴀɴ by euronews & EU Maritime & Fish

Today is the day ❗ Tune in tonight on Euronews TV to watch the new episode of ‘Ocean’ documentary series and explore the innovative research #CMMI is conducting. ⏳ Tonight at 20:45 CET (21:45 Cyprus time) in 7 languages! 📍 #Euronews TV & euronews.com/ocean

🌡️🌊 "Spreading like wildfires" We were pleased to welcome euronews' Denis Denis Loctier to our office and share insights on the work of Mercator Ocean to monitor and forecast marine heatwaves. Watch the video report and learn more at this link ➡️ bit.ly/4g6x9oR

It takes a scientist a full day at the microscope to count plankton in a seawater sample, but AI can do the same work in just 30 minutes. Ocean data is exploding, opening up incredible possibilities. Don’t miss this month’s Ocean episode, which I produced in Italy and Belgium!

Five offshore wind test sites (including Plataforma Oceánica de Canarias (PLOCAN) that I visited this year) teamed up to improve conditions for floating wind projects — they aim to tackle challenges like permitting to speed up testing and innovation, keeping EU at the forefront of floating wind technology

Yesterday, we filmed a dive in the “Secche della Meloria” marine protected area near Livorno, where Italian researchers tested an underwater acoustic “WiFi/GPS” system developed by WSENSE through the WTAG project. Look out for my TV story on it, coming in November!

Here’s me explaining the ⁦WSENSE⁩ underwater communication system while diving with Italian marine biologists in the latest episode of Ocean 🤿 Looks interesting? Watch the full episode on ⁦euronews⁩ TV and online in seven languages 👉 euronews.com/green/2024/11/…

Italy’s underwater WiFi. Portugal’s fish-powered farms. Europe’s #blueeconomy startups are innovating big—but funding them? In this Ocean episode, w/Euronews Green shows how the EU’s #BlueInvest is helping turn ocean ideas into real change. 🌊 tinyurl.com/35zythyu

The 𝟳𝟬th episode of my TV series "Ocean" airs this week! This time, we explore how Northern Sweden managed to preserve its wild salmon while many other regions couldn’t.

French fishers are testing #DolphinFree pingers, using a new approach to keep dolphins away from nets. In Audierne, I spoke with #CDPMEM29 Virginie Lagarde about what fishers think of this tech — can it protect dolphins while helping fishing in the Bay of Biscay return to normal?

Les pêcheurs 🇫🇷 testent des balises #DolphinFree — une nouvelle approche pour éloigner les dauphins des filets. À Audierne, j’ai parlé avec Virginie Lagarde du #CDPMEM29 : cette balise peut-elle protéger les dauphins tout en aidant la pêche à reprendre normalement ?

Some sectors can’t go electric — but they can go green. In Esbjerg, I interviewed Lars Dyrholm from European Energy on how #GreenHydrogen and #EMethane, produced with offshore wind energy, can replace fossil fuels for hard-to-abate industries. #EnergyTransition

With floating turbines, offshore wind parks can move into deeper, windier waters — unlocking 80% of Europe’s sea area for green power. At WindEurope Events, I spoke with Stine Myhre Selås from Equinor about this next leap for renewables. #FloatingWind

Where marine science meets tourism: on Faial Island, the whale-watching company Naturalist stands out — it’s run entirely by scientists 🐋 Marine biologist Gisela Dionísio told me why that makes it a win-win.
