The BIOcean5D workshop brought scientists together to share knowledge and collectively identify strategies and methodologies for comparing marine biodiversity data. The results of the work will contribute to a better understanding of biodiversity change.

Through the BIOcean5D project, we’re exploring marine life and how it changes with space, time, and human impact. Central to achieving that goal is the collection of data and samples along Europe’s coasts, in collaboration with more than 90 partners, including EMBL’s TREC expedition, in partnership with the Tara Ocean Foundation and the EMBRC. The integration of these new samples with existing historical data will enable critical marine biodiversity and ecosystem knowledge gaps to be filled.
