A South Tyneside Council-led project aims to strengthen North Eastern coastlines and communities in the face of flooding, erosion and the impacts of climate change.

Join the The Open Sea Lab 3.0 Hackathon to create and share innovative ideas for the development of useful ocean-related applications.

A global assessment by HKU marine scientists found that oyster reef restoration rapidly increases marine biodiversity. However, increased restoration effort is needed to eliminate historical damage.

Scientists from Simon Fraser University are part of an international team of researchers that has developed a new science-based indicator to assess the state of health of the oceans—and the possible risk of extinction of their species.

Discover some of the inspirational people and organisations working to learn more about and mitigate the impact of invasive species in the ocean in this special edition of Eco Magazine.

Scientists at Simon Fraser University have developed a cryogenic freezing technique to store germplasm, or “seed”, of at-risk bull kelp in a biobank. The collection of “seed” could be used to aid restoration efforts and advance research projects such as identifying kelp populations that may be better suited to survive in the warmer waters expected with climate change.
