Don’t miss my talk about the progress of the COAST projet DivingTalks Biodiversa+ (European Biodiversity Partnership) Water JPI CESAM Community UAResearch

Finishing our field work in Santo Antão, Cabo Verde within the project COAST Cabo Verde Biodiversa+ (European Biodiversity Partnership): amazing coral biodiversity, bleaching of millepora, mortality of tubastrea and implementation of pilot restoration protocols. Hoping to return next year!

Go check out the fundraising for our local fishermen Djadja! He works closely with us and is always a great help on our missions. We asked how we can support him and since he needs a new engine we created this fundraising. Thank you for your support! gofund.me/ef505e76

The WP2 of the COAST project UBO - Univ. Brest and @CESAM_Univ started to investigate the ecosystem functioning of SA coastal habitats. Thank you to all fishermen involved. Biodiversa+ (European Biodiversity Partnership) , @biodivrestore.

As part of WP1 and WP2, Fred Swierczynski, Bruno Gaidan (Underwater experience), Teresa Amaro (@CESAM_Univ) have continue to characterize benthic and pelagic biodiversity in target areas in depths beyond 30 m. Thank you to all the fishermen! @biodiverestore, Biodiversa+ (European Biodiversity Partnership)

I will be hosting a session at the V.ECOP Days Early Career Ocean Professionals during the UN Ocean Decade conference in Barcelona! Check it out, send your contribution by 15.3.24, and be part of this unique event!

The 2nd annual meeting of the @coast project happened last year in Barcelona. Thank you so much for all present (on-line and in person). It was a very nice and productive meeting! Biodiversa+ (European Biodiversity Partnership) @CESAM_Univ UAResearch Deep-sea Lab IEO-CSIC

How unique are black coral forests? How can we preserve them? Teresa Amaro from @CESAM_Univ with two technical divers from @underwaterexperince spent the last 2 weeks estimating biodiversity in these ecosystems!Thanks to Biodiversa+ (European Biodiversity Partnership) Water JPI !!!!

First day of sampling today! Collecting data on biodiversity, trophic ecology and oceanography. #marinescience #oceanography #biodiversity #conservation #coast

The Oceanography Team from the University of Azores went to Cruzinha (St. Antão) to measure oceanographic biotic and abiotic parameters in the water column. We would like to thank Biodiversa+ (European Biodiversity Partnership) and the COAST Cabo Verde project for this amazing opportunity! See you soon, Santo Antão!

Thrilled to be giving a talk on the black coral forests we find in the mesophotic zone in Santo Antão, Cabo Verde today at the #ECRS2024!
