Other Effective Area-Based Conservation Measures (OECMs) can play a decisive role in reaching biodiversity targets — yet they remain underused and unevenly assessed. 🌍🌐

NORD activity – Zooplankton sampling in Sub-Arctic Fjord (Mistfjorden). Earlier in the year there were perfect conditions for Dr. Ribas-Deulofeu @ribas-deulofeu.bsky.social to sample zooplankton in the sub-Arctic fjord Mistfjord (Norway).

This is a great project to be involved in, observing without disturbing. I will be soon heading to Crete to deploy our next and most southerly based system. Watch this space for more updates!
Anyone keen to join our lab? Apply now and join a dynamic team on the forefront of marine conservation biodiversity research.
Seeing zooplankton sampling in a sub-Arctic fjord feels especially good on a hot summer day.
Great work from our BioBoost+ partners at NORD & @ribas-deulofeu.bsky.social — another step forward in connecting long-term marine monitoring, new field sampling, digitisation, and AI-assisted analysis.

This case study is a great example of where marine monitoring is heading: combining underwater imagery, AI tools, and expert ecological knowledge to make biodiversity assessments faster and more scalable.
