Biodiversity moves fast, but the data pipelines feeding environmental policy often struggle to keep pace. ⏳

We analyzed over 30 years of survey data to describe the environmental drivers, such as depth and temperature, linked to the occurrences of cephalopods in the NE Atlantic. This analysis aims to better understand the habitat requirements of commercially important species. An ICES WGCEPH output.

Celebrate World Biodiversity Day with us! 🌍 The Portuguese Data Stewards Network invites you to an online session highlighting the importance of data management and curation in preserving our scientific and natural heritage.

Yesterday we launched the AURORA Shiny App 🚀 👀

Stop wrestling with biodiversity data formatting! 🤯 Learn how to use our new web app to prep your datasets for sharing on GBIF and OBIS in our upcoming workshop. ⏰ Next session: Monday, April 27 @ 09:30 AM (WEST) 📅 2nd session: May 20 @ 05:00 PM (WEST) Register: forms.cloud.microsoft/e/7HFHwMWaJR

Welcome to a new #mooc of #ges4seas project on #oceanoptimism, to be developed during next four weeks, on Mondays, Wednesday and Fridays. Come and help us to change the narrative about the ocean! We need some hope and good news!

It's my pleasure to annnounce a new @azti.bsky.social #GES4SEAS summer school: assessing cumulative effects from multiple #pressures at sea, a practical application, using our Tikta tool. There is a limited number of places, apply now! #Research #MarineEcology www.azti.es/en/events/su...

The #ocean provides for all of us, but that is not the end of the story. We are part of the ecosystem and we need to respect that. The fish 🐟 we eat, the corals 🪸 that protect our coast, with our actions we influence them, harm them and in doing so can harm ourselves.

🌍 Excited to share our new e-book: Understanding the Response of Ecosystems to Increasing Human Pressures and #ClimateChange – #Management Options! 🚀 Explore its 27 papers: 🔗 www.frontiersin.org/research-top... 🌐🌍 #MarineEcology #GES4SEAS #Conservation #EcosystemBasedManagement #NatureBasedSolutions

During European Researchers’ Night 2025, our lab team brought deep-sea science to Fábrica da Ciência Viva, Aveiro; Torreira & Armamar, with games and talks that inspired curiosity, promoted inclusion, and highlighted the value of ocean research.🌊🔬🌍

Deadline extended🐬 Join the remote Marine Biodiversity Data Mobilization Workshop to learn how to bring your marine biodiversity datasets into OBIS! 📅 Workshop dates: 4-6 November 2025, 17:00-21:00 UTC ↪️ Apply by 30.9.25! docs.google.com/forms/d/1SpW...

Welcome to the #ges4seas #mooc on Tipping Points #tipp Well, what is a Tipping Point? It is a point after which an ecosystem suddenly shifts from one state to another, Going back to the original state is difficult: SOMETIMES IMPOSSIBLE. See the thread for more details👇

Very happy to announce that our project AURORA: Bringing Deep-Sea #Biodiversity Data to Light has been selected for funding by @dtobioflow.bsky.social 🎉 @ahilario.bsky.social @helianateixeira.bsky.social @uaveiro.bsky.social #DTOBioFlow

Each project brings unique expertise, methods, and data realities—spanning regions, ecosystems, and institutions. 🌊🧪 Workshops like this are a rare chance to hear such diverse voices, yet all aligned around a shared purpose. Ideas are already starting to connect. tinyurl.com/yc6zbbax

🌊 The #DTOBioFlow #SecondOpenCall winners are here! 🎉 10 projects selected from 61 will receive up to €60K to support #MarineBiodiversity data integration into the #EUDTO. 🏁 Workshop kicks off today in #Paris! 🔗 Meet the winners: tinyurl.com/3suw9fum 🚀 Not selected? Follow us for more!

Excited to be in Paris for the DTO-BioFlow Data Grants Holders Workshop! Discussing crucial topics like effective biodiversity data management & sharing in open-access data repositories like EMODnet Biology. Let's make data FAIR for better conservation! #DTOBioFlow #BiodiversityData #OpenScience

🚨 New dataset! 🚨 Mapping human & climate pressures on deep-sea benthic habitats within Mainland Portugal's Exclusive Economic Zone (>200m) 🇵🇹 (1/4)

1/5 🚨 New research alert! 🌊 Happy to share our new paper on anthropogenic pressures footprint on #DeepSea benthic habitats in Mainland Portuguese EEZ. A #GES4SEAS & @bioprotectproject.bsky.social paper with @ahilario.bsky.social and @helianateixeira.bsky.social

🌊 Join #INCISE2025 in Barcelona, hosted by the ICM & CSIC, in collaboration with the University of Barcelona to focus on submarine canyons and their role in marine science. 📅 16 - 19 June 2025 📍 Barcelona, Spain 📣 Call for abstracts: Submit by 31 March 2025 Have you made a submission? Let us know 👇

My @azti.bsky.social #GES4SEAS summer school in June is open. An opportunity to learn and discuss on #ArtificialIntelligence and #citizenscience applications for monitoring #invasive species and #biodiversity at sea #MarineEcology @guardias.bsky.social

Today is the International Day of Women & Girls in Science. At #GES4SEAS project we have engaged women scientists with the #ocean assessment and management. These are only few of them. They are examples for future female scientists! @azti.bsky.social #WomeninScience #MarineEcology #Research #STEAM

Tomorrow at lunch time take an #OceanBreak and come listening to another talk of the #CESAM seminar series in marine sciences at the University of Aveiro. I'll be talking about the use of #AI Computer Vision Tools in Biological Invasions Research! 🌊 🐚

6 great European projects gathered to bring you this exciting summer school #GES4SEAS, #OBAMA-NEXT, #GuardIAS, #BioBoost+, #ANERIS and #POMP hosted by @azti.bsky.social @drangelborja.bsky.social Find more about the Programme and Registration here: www.azti.es/en/event/sum...
