It's ON! Morning session of the Final Event of the Blueforesting project.
Today our partners will showcase their results 👨‍💻

🇵🇹From Portugal to the Arctic! 🇳🇴These experiments on the effect of extreme thermal events on marine forest habitats will shed light on how present-day communities will affected by #ClimateChange across the Northern Atlantic coast.

Not even rain and bad weather can stop us! ⛈️
Testing new methods to restore our lost #marineforests with an incredible team! 💪
Good luck little ones 🤩

🎉Almost ready for the first deployment!! Our little babies of Laminaria hyperborea will be used to test different reforestation methods for Portuguese marine forests through the BlueForesting project project 🌊

We did it! 🥳
Our first cultivation of Laminaria hyperborea (commonly known as cuvie) was done for the BlueForesting project project!
Swipe to see how pretty they are! 😍

How strong is the upwelling at present? Will it support the persistence of marine forests in northern Portugal? @Blueforesting collects and analyzes underwater temperature data to unlock insights into the health and longevity of these vital habitats.

Amazing storytelling by Nuno Vasco Rodrigues for Oceanographic about #kelp #conservation and #restoration work in #Portugal embedded in EEA Grants Portugal BlueForesting project & blueforests projects with @MARE_centre ESTM - POLITÉCNICO DE LEIRIA CIIMAR-UP Lemos Lab Benthic Ecology Team CIIMAR #marineforests #EEAGrants

Deconstructing science in a different environment and with a beer in the mix! It was nice to talk about kelp forests Marine Forests and to show a little bit of the work we do at BlueForesting project FutureMARES ! CIIMAR-UP Pint of Science PT

This is absolutely horrifying...! Sea surface temperatures are reaching record highs since the beginning of NOAA's satellite records #ClimateChange #OceanWarming #SST

Happy #phycologyfriday !!! Ahhh.....the golden light in subtidal kelp forest communities is so soothing. #seaweed #Egregia #Sargassum #Macrocystis #Asparagopsis #Catalina

3 interventions to restore and enhance #BlueCarbon pathways:

1. Conserve and revive seaweed forests
2. Help existing seaweed farms develop products that have a lower GHG footprint
3. Expand seaweed farming into offshore waters

A very happy intertidal ecologist with Macrocystis pyrifera! In Puerto Deseado, Argentina

🌊 Last Tuesday we profited of the lowest tides that we will have for the next six months to sample some intertidal algae & invertebrates 🪸

🌊Today was fieldwork day! we went to this amazing rocky beach to deploy some recruitment disks under the toothed wrack. This species has been progressively disappearing from the Portuguese coast. Hopefully, we will be able to help. BlueForesting project
