Expert opinions regarding the concept of blue carbon in seaweed systems

Phycological Research, EarlyView.
SUMMARY A collection of expert opinions critically evaluates the role of seaweed in blue carbon strategies for climate change mitigation. While the concept of fast‐growing seaweed to capture atmospheric carbon is appealing, the experts largely agree that its potential for direct, long‐term carbon sequestration is currently overstated and faces ...

RV Pelagia Cruise 64PE372, 27 Jun - 11 Jul 2013. Flow dynamics and sedimentation in an active submarine channel: a process-product approach [PDF]

, 2014
Novel technologies are providing new opportunities to study the structure and dynamics of submarine sediment-gravity flows; these flows are the dominant process for transfer of sediment into the deep ocean, but are very hard to monitor due their ...

Seafloor heterogeneity influences the biodiversity-ecosystem functioning relationships in the deep sea [PDF]

, 2016
Theoretical ecology predicts that heterogeneous habitats allow more species to co-exist in a given area. In the deep sea, biodiversity is positively linked with ecosystem functioning, suggesting that deep-seabed heterogeneity could influence ecosystem ...

EUSeaMap. A European broad-scale seabed habitat map

, 2017
In order to most benefit from the potential offered by the European marine basins in terms of growth and employment (Blue Growth), and to protect the marine environment, we need to know more about the seafloor. European Directives, such as the MSFD, but also the Horizon 2020 roadmap explicitly called for a multi-resolution full coverage of all European

Opportunities for targeted, small‐scale law reform in marine and coastal restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Across the globe, law reform is being considered as a mechanism to support, guide, and encourage the upscaling of ecological restoration. While high‐profile examples like the European Nature Restoration Law show the value of large‐scale law reform, this scale of law reform will not be feasible or politically tractable everywhere.

The source‐to‐sea nexus between water and ocean law: An international and EU perspective

Review of European, Comparative &International Environmental Law, EarlyView.
Abstract The source‐to‐sea (S2S) approach provides a systemic framework for analysing the governance of naturally interconnected freshwater and marine ecosystems. This paper examines the extent to which the S2S approach is reflected in key international and EU water and ocean law instruments, as well as the legal and governance implications of said ...

Development of a fusion adaptive algorithm for marine debris detection within the post-Sandy restoration framework [PDF]

, 2014
Recognition of marine debris represent a difficult task due to the extreme variability of the marine environment, the possible targets, and the variable skill levels of human operators.

From credits to coherence: Applying the policy coherence approach to prevent problem‐shifting in the Paris Agreement Crediting Mechanism

Review of European, Comparative &International Environmental Law, EarlyView.
Abstract Carbon crediting mechanisms can deliver cost‐effective climate mitigation but risk ‘problem‐shifting’ by worsening environmental harms such as biodiversity loss and water pollution. This article assesses whether the Paris Agreement Crediting Mechanism (PACM) is better equipped than the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) to prevent such trade ...

Using sea lion-borne video to map diverse benthic habitats in southern Australia

Frontiers in Marine Science
Across the world’s oceans, our knowledge of the habitats on the seabed is limited. Increasingly, video/imagery data from remotely operated underwater vehicles (ROVs) and towed and drop cameras, deployed from vessels, are providing critical new ...
