BlauCat-Current Status and Action Plan for Blue Carbon in Catalonia

The BlauCat project aims to assess the current status of blue carbon in Catalonia’s coastal ecosystems and contribute to the development of an action plan for their conservation and restoration, as a tool to support public policies for climate change mitigation and adaptation. The project will generate a homogeneous and georeferenced database on blue carbon stocks and fluxes at the regional scale, as well as an analysis of the restoration potential of these ecosystems.

Understanding millennial-scale change in Posidonia oceanica ecosystems (POSIDONIArXiv)

The project provides tools to guide the management and restoration of P. oceanica, a key species that stabilises sediments, sequesters CO₂ and provides habitat for numerous species, but which is currently declining due to human impacts.

Spanish Group of Experts in Blue Carbon Ecosystems (G3ECA)

The new Blue Carbon Ecosystems Research Network in Spain brings together experts from across the country to promote the conservation of saltmarshes and seagrass meadows. Its goal is to generate knowledge, advise authorities, and foster policies and projects that harness the potential of BCEs to fight climate change and support sustainability.

Environmental changes in coastal ecosystems in response to anthropogenic drivers during the holocene (HOLOCENO)

Change in ecosystems occurs over multiple temporal and spatial scales. Discriminating between actual changes, cycles and trends is often difficult or impossible without an adequate temporal perspective, since multiple processes interact at multiple temporal and spatial scales.

Environmental change in Mediterranean coastal ecosystems in response to pressures (MEDCHANGE)

MEDCHANGE will use long, detailed and reliable data of relevant structural and functional variables of ecosystems to reconstruct the dynamics of coastal and terrestrial ecosystems, at a Mediterranean scale, when interacting with natural and anthropogenic disturbances.

Seafloor Intelligent Robot Exploration and Classification (SIREC)

Per dotar els robots submarins de més autonomia i capacitats, aquest projecte busca millorar i potenciar les seves capacitats cognitives i intel·ligents durant l’exploració del fons marí. SIREC treballarà en primer lloc el mapeig de praderies marines de Posidonia oceànica, un component important dels ecosistemes vinculats al segrest de carboni i, per tant, de gran impacte ambiental i social.
