As climate change impacts coral reefs around the world, available and actionable data are paramount to inform timely actions. Join us at #COP27 to discuss the applications of innovative data-driven initiates on coral reef monitoring from cross-cutting perspectives.

Great to be driving innovation at #COP27 to help coral reef communities respond to the impacts of climate change by democratising knowledge through platforms such as ReefCloud. 🪸 Manuel Gonzalez-Rivero Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) SPREP CORDIO East Africa WWF Carol Phua Heidi Prislan Amanda Brigdale

At APCRS2023? Today, Samuel Chan will be talking about using ReefCloud to support integrated monitoring and automated reporting on the status of coral reef #GCRMN. Join us at 11:15 in Lt 53. youtu.be/LhGzoPzk8qs

Come and join our team to learn more about ReefCloud and its amazing functionality and use at #APCRS2023 - 20June23: 11:15 am Lecture Theatre 53 23June23: 2:45 pm Lecture Theatre 51 23June23: 2:30 pm Lecture Theatre 52 Manuel Gonzalez-Rivero

Day 3 of #APCRS2023 a success – our workshop was full of new MERMAIDs learning to analyze and ingest coral reef data using the mermaidr package. Data, faster, #ForCoral 🪸 Coudn't make it to APCRS but interested in a tutorial? Contact us: datamermaid.org/contact-us

We're training reef monitors with Brunei Dept. of Fisheries to automate data collection & analysis using #ReefCloud. With Australian Government we aim to build reef monitoring capabilities to inform sustainable management of the ecosystems that support communities. 🔗ow.ly/KoPo50OUwuU

Collaboration is key for effective actions. Today, Ashton Gainsford and Yashika Nand will talk APCRS2023 on how ReefCloud can broaden participation in monitoring and support inclusion in conservation actions. 2.30 pm at LT52 yashu 2.45 pm at LT51 Ashton Gainsford

How do we make marine management actions faster and more effective? Yashika Nand discusses how ReefCloud can do just that! Benthic monitoring via photos can be done by anyone - meaning data from more remote locations can be retrieved. #APCRS2023 APCRS2023

Great end to #APCRS2023 with two talks on community-driven reef management in Indonesia (multilingual) and one from Ashton Gainsford (fellow HBer Homeward Bound) on using ReefCloud to facilitate monitoring and collaboration between Indigenous and western science 🪸

Are you one of the thousands of coral champions around the world collecting coral reef monitoring data? #DYK that there are several platforms that can help you gather and share data #ForCoral - including MERMAID, ReefCloud, Allen Coral Atlas, + more!

Warmest congratulations to seawomenofmelanesia's Naomi Longa on her well-deserved Whitley Fund for Nature! We're feeling a bit starstruck that her team have been using #ReefCloud to collaborate and share their Kimbe Bay #coralreef #monitoring data!

Tunnung Island school students in #PNG have been conducting their own coral reef monitoring surveys under the guidance of local champion Clem Anton (supported by Coral Sea Foundation & seawomenofmelanesia): stoked to see the next generation empowered with the latest tools to collect data!

It’s a cliché but it’s true: the youth are our future. So I’m pleased that Ocean Week Brunei, which 🇦🇺 is sponsoring, has had a strong focus on empowering 🇧🇳’s youth to take action to advance sustainable ocean management. 🪸🐟🌊🙋‍♀️👨‍🌾🧕
