We're attending the final meeting of @MarinePlanEBMSP! 🌊🗺️ Over two days, key results from three years of work are being shared, connecting science and policy to improve ecosystem-based maritime spatial planning across European seas. More info 👉 marineplan.eu @icmcsic.bsky.social

1️⃣🌊The Mediterranean is a biodiversity hotspot, but also a witness to climate and human impacts over the last 130k years.  We conducted a systematic review to understand how these changes affected marine mammals, fish, and molluscs. @icmcsic.bsky.social  @maria-bas.bsky.social  ‪@kagiadi.bsky.social

🌊Climate change is transforming marine ecosystems. But what happens when predators and their prey no longer overlap in space? We explore this in our paper in Global Change Biology. 👇 #MarineEcology #ClimateChange @icmcsic.bsky.social @maria-bas.bsky.social
