🌊 MARUM's Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) are exploring oceans worldwide, uncovering unique habitats and incredible deep-sea moments. With each dive, researchers encounter fascinating marine life and uncover the mysteries of the deep. Dive in with us ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KN6KT_n5lb4
The #observatory monitors temperature, water depth, oxygen & chlorophyll levels in the #ocean water. Paired to a #satellite, the observatory transmits #data every 30 mins to #researchers.
FIVE DAYS TO GO!!

>"None of the 17 #UnitedNations#SustainableDevelopmentGoals (#SDGs) is on track to be achieved by 2030... But progress on a few, including the 14th goal — to conserve and #sustainably use the #oceans — has actually been going backwards since the 2015 UN summit..."
Scientists raise alarm over federal fisheries science.
Worked as an undergrad with DFO on domoic acid in mussels in PEI. A sad state of affairs now. Changes urged with “…requests for the department to engage in ‘robust peer-reviewed, non-biased science’; …research and data to be publicly available; and for an investigation into the extent to which management is influencing the work of departmental scientists” #Canada#Science#cdnpoli#MarineScience#Oceans#Fisheries
We discussed how communities worldwide, from Southeast Asia to Western Europe, develop meaningful attachments to the coastal environment they interact with, forming places out of spaces.
We also showed how various threats, from plastic pollution to tourism, impact these places, and what this all means for our sustainable future.
Climate change is an immediate threat to the majority of the world's population.
We need a local, regional, state, national, and international "moon shot" type of concentration of effort using available resources while developing and advancing new science and technologies to counteract the damage humans have caused.
Without this type of all-out, universal cooperation, human civilization, and perhaps humanity itself, are in imminent danger of extinction.
