The #NatureRestorationLaw has entered into force on 18.08.2024. EU member states face the challlenge of restoring at least 20% of marine ecosystems by 2030. Research on fisheries #bycatch plays a key role towards keeping the marine biodiversity and its good environmental status.

Many species of oceanic sharks are covered by the UNFSA as are highly migratory fish stocks that migrate across the ocean. As key predators in marine ecosystems they play a crucial role in maintaining the balance by regulating populations & preserve the balance of the food chain.

#MissionOcean project EDITO - European Digital Twin Ocean is supporting the creation of the European Digital Twin Ocean (EU DTO) 🙌. This ocean digital replica will help us predict the impacts of human actions and & climate change on our ocean 🌊. Learn more 👉 edito-infra.eu

🌊Las reservas marinas contribuyen a lograr una explotación sostenida de los recursos de interés pesquero. 🐟En estas áreas, la biomasa y la densidad de peces existente se estabiliza gracias a la dispersión de las especies. ✅Es lo que se conoce como "efecto reserva".
