💚 Another trial, another species! First germlings of the brown algae Ascophyllum nodosum are starting to show up! 😎 We hope they will keep growing strong until the next deployment 🌊. #eeagrantspt.#eeagrants #marinerestoration #Seedciimar #marineforests #blueforests

🎉 First baby Fucus on our discs! .Finally, after many months of waiting, we were able to see the first recruits 🤩.Let's hope these little guys grow up healthy and strong 💪. #marinerestoration #marineforests #marinescience #oceanconservation #eeagrantspt #eeagrants #Seedciimar

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 🤩. #marinescience #MarineConservation #marinerestoration #BlueCarbon #blueforests #oceanconservation

We started our experiments with Fucus serratus! Here in Portugal, this species is only found in the north, which is also its southern distribution limit. We hope that these little guys will grow healthy and help us recover our depleted #marineforests . #MarineConservation

🤯It was a BLAST! Despite the bad weather, a multitude of visitors of all ages came to see us at the #ciimaropenday. 🌊.We hope we have transmitted our enthusiasm to all of you and that you enjoyed your visit as much as we enjoyed hosting you!🤗.#scienceeducation #citizenscience

🎉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 🌊. #marinerestoration #marineforests #blueforests #oceanconservation

We did it! 🥳.Our first cultivation of Laminaria hyperborea (commonly known as cuvie) was done for the @blueforesting project! .Swipe to see how pretty they are! 😍. #marinerestoration #marineforests #blueforesting #BlueForests

Our colleague Francisco Arenas (@falaropo) explaining the importance of #MarineForests and the threats they are currently facing, with particular focus on Northern Portugal and Galiza

Our colleague @marina_dolbeth presented today, at the Ocean3R final event, their work on #MarineForests as nature-based solutions for the recovery of degraded ecosystems

Happy to present the great work of our former student Tomás Pinheiro, who unfortunately couldn't join us today, at the final Ocean3R event. His work focused on testing different #MarineReforestation methods for the golden #kelp
