Science based management is the unique way forward to protect our seas!🪸🐟Spanish Government @gobmapa announced to ban fishing activities on Cabliers reefs! A big step ahead towards our final bet: a definitive transboundary protection of this deep-sea oasis! @ICMCSIC

It was great to participate in #ObjetivoPlaneta with @lorenzomila to advocate for the protection of Cabliers' reefs. A key move for 🇪🇸 would be to protect the portion of the reef within its waters, showing its commitment to 🇲🇦 & 🇩🇿.

It has been a great pleasure talking about Cabliers reefs and the urgency to protect them at #objetivoplaneta, with the great @lorenzomila. The more we know, the better we protect! https://t.co/8ZunZT5acd

How little we know of deep-sea kingdom! A. Sweetman and collaborators discovered polymetallic nodules can produce oxygen in the abyss! A clear hint on how far we are from sustainable dee-sea mining. https://t.co/t6lt3D62Ws

[Oceana in Europe @OceanaEurope]

This week we are in Rome for the #GFCM #WestMed Committee to advocate for the creation of permanent protection of the #Cabliers reefs with the help of @ICMCSIC & Alboran Sea countries 🇪🇺 🇲🇦 🇩🇿 🇪🇸 to boost fisheries sustainability.

@_EMEPC_ please tag @ICMCSIC, which has been leading the project, and @UN_FAO_GFCM and @utm_csic which have supported the use of Luso. Thank you!!!

An incredibly rich area of Leiopathes and the densest field of Anthomastus ever observed in the Mediterranean. The near-pristine nature of Cabliers FRA never stops surprising! @ICMCSIC @CSICdivulga @UN_FAO_GFCM @OceanaEurope @_EMEPC_ #marine #biodiversity #coral #reefs

[Cabliers_Reefs @Cabliers_Reefs]

We are mapping the Cabliers vertical walls for 3D reconstructions of the associated VMEs in this new FRA. The more we know, the better we protect! 🎯🦐🐟 @ICMCSIC @UN_FAO_GFCM @CSIC @_EMEPC_ @OceanaEurope

In PROTEUS Cruise 🪸🪸🌊🌊 we already reached over 50 biological samples for food web, metagenomic and taxonomic studies!!! Thanks PROTEUS people for such a great effort!!!!! @icm.csic @csic @__emepc__ @oceanaeurope #deepsea #coralreefs #marineconservation #marinebiodiversity

@UN_FAO_GFCM @ICMCSIC @Cabliers_Reefs This is how this 400,000 year-old coral mound looks like - a biodiversity hospot that provides shelter and food to deep-sea wildlife!

[Oceana in Europe @OceanaEurope]

Oceana is calling to create a Fisheries Restricted Area in Cabliers, a seamount in the Alboran Sea that harbours semi-pristine cold-water corals.
@UN_FAO_GFCM agreed to ban bottom fishing in November 2023, and @ICMCSIC is now researching the area.

🐟🪸 what a reef! In PROTEUS cruise of @ICMCSIC we gathered among the best scientists on deep-ecology for supporting protection procedures! @OceanaEurope @UN_FAO_GFCM @__emepec__ @niozsearesearch

Current meters are monitoring local scale hydrodynamics on thriving Cabliers reefs 🪸. The better we know, the better we protect!!!! 🎯

In the international PROTEUS cruise, the EMEPC superb guys are assisting us with ROV Luso on Cabliers and Catifas thriving reefs! Stay tuned for mindblowing dives ahead! 🪸🐟🦈

⚠️Here we come again!
Everything’s set for the PROTEUS Cruise, where we'll explore the thriving reefs of Cabliers and Catifas for a month🪸, aboard R/V Sarmiento de Gamboa! Hours of ROV dives, CTD casts and seafloor mapping are waiting for us! #ProteusExpedition #ProtectCabliers

We are excited to share #OceanWatch, a new 40-minute film with mesmerizing #DeepSea footage from the ground-breaking discoveries on Research Vessel #FalkorToo in 2023. Made with the always amazing @naturalwfacts.
