The effects of cumulative pressures at sea are important. At #GES4SEAS we have written a policy brief to show managers some tools allowing to take action on this #ocean problem #MarineEcology #Research Read it here: zenodo.org/records/1894...

Today is #WorldWildlifeDay2026 and it is a good day to launch our #GES4SEAS Tikta software to assess the cumulative effects at sea and its environmental status. Learn here in this video #MarineEcology #Research youtu.be/POx9iXz1ufo

A study led by AZTI has detected a sustained decrease in pH levels in the #BayofBiscay waters. 👨‍🔬 @villarino1981.bsky.social: “If this trend continues at the same rate, it could have significant impacts on the health of marine ecosystems.” 👀🔽 www.azti.es/en/ocean-aci...

Out in @oikosjournal.bsky.social we discuss on the ecological mechanisms, including different dispersal strategies, underpinning the lower diversity levels found the ocean relative to terrestrial systems @guillemchust.bsky.social @azti.bsky.social nsojournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10....

Why do oceans shelter fewer species than land? A review on the role of sinking, dispersal and body size
Oceans, covering 71% of the Earth's surface, have sheltered life over longer time compared to land. In 1994, Robert M. May posed the following question: why do oceans hold a smaller number of extant ...

Our article “What do we know about the state of European seas?” is now out in @consletters.bsky.social. In this study, we used all available #MSFD assessments to unveil the status of European Seas. @drangelborja.bsky.social @skatsanevakis.bsky.social Find the article link at the post’s end.

🐟🔥 The sea is warming… and that’s changing what we catch and how much it’s worth. 📊 In the NW Mediterranean, we analyzed 23 years of data to understand how climate change is reshaping fisheries. #ClimateChange #Fisheries #Mediterranean @icmcsic.bsky.social  #LuciaEspasandin
