Become a Posidonia Keeper
In the last months we’ve been actively working on and preparing videos about the importance of Posidonia oceanica and seabed protection. See more about the whole story in our short video! 🤩

Participating in the Final Conference of the @InterregSaspas Croatia Confetence held in #Split, #Croatia. 🏝🏖🏝🏖
Great job done by all #SASPAS Project partners with interesting eco-mooring solutions applied Inter #AdriaticSea 🏝
Thank you #Sunce for your hospitality 😊😋

#Split: Na konferenciji su predstavljeni rezultati i iskustva stečena tijekom provedbe projekta @InterregSaspas te se raspravljalo o izazovima i mogućim rješenjima za smanjenje utjecaja sidrenja na #morskecvjetnice, posebice livade #Posidoniaoceanica. cutt.ly/RJXTsLf – at Republic of Croatia

We announce our participation in the 14th edition of CROATIA NAUTIC SHOW & TOURIST ATTRACTIONS EXPO in Marina Kaštela!
The fair starts this Thursday until Sunday you can visit us at our stand in Marina Kaštela near Split.

Marine #underwater habitats dominated by #seagrass #PosidoniaOceanica play an essential role in #fish community assembly, affecting taxonomic and functional diversity, abundance and fish behavior.
ALT Marine underwater habitats dominated by seagrass Posidonia oceanica play an essential role in fish community assembly, affecting taxonomic and functional diversity, abundance and fish behavior. The value of seagrasses as habitat depends on the spatial arrangement of the seascape elements and the availability of alternative habitats.
#Seagrasses are important habitat formers, providing nursery grounds for fish populations.
More than 400 species of #algae & 500 species of invertebrates can be found in #Posidonia meadows, which play a vital role as reproductive and nursery grounds for over 80 species of #fish
Do you know which common hand signals ensure safe #diving? Well, our divers know which ones are the best to show that the #seabed is under control. 👌🏼
🌱Have you become a #PosidoniaKepeer yet? 😄

In this article, their results show that #seagrass meadows promote plastic debris trapping and aggregation with natural lignocellulosic fibers, which are then ejected and escape the coastal ocean.

Did you know that an anchor pulls out an average of 34 #posidonia shoots?
This sentence was designed by the project team of Udruga za prirodu, okoliš i održivi razvoj Sunce from Split (🇭🇷). We like it very much, and you?

Are you afraid to swim above the dark parts of the seabed?🤿
In the video of the field research of the Posidonia meadows, you can see that you really have nothing to fear.😉👇

"#Posidonia meadows are oxygen factories, which is why they are called the lungs of the sea."
Take a look at the new article published yesterday in the Jutarnji.

Video from the beginning of the project.. Our goal is to reduce anchoring in the meadows of 𝘗𝘰𝘴𝘪𝘥𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘢 𝘖𝘤𝘦𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘢, but also the illegal placement of buoys and concrete on the seabed.
"In the years leading up to the pandemic, environmentalists had warned of the threat posed to oceans and marine life by skyrocketing plastic pollution."

In the 8 institutions that are partners in the #SASPAS project, there are many women who have contributed to conservation of #seagrass, carried out transplantations of #PosidoniaOceanica & have always participated equally in all our activities. #WomensDay2022
