Research projects.

We explore the drivers and predict the distribution of biodiversity at the global scale to identify priority conservation areas, safeguarding biodiversity for future generations.

  • Featured projects
Marine Protected Areas Europe

MPA Europe will map the optimal locations for marine protected areas in European seas.

High-performance computing projects climate change impacts on biodiversity

Experiments will identify regions of extinction, persistence and ocean-accessible, climatic corridors for biodiversity.

Bio-ORACLE, data layers for distribution modelling

Bio-ORACLE is a project aimed to provide high-resolution geophysical, biotic and environmental data for distribution modelling.

Paris Agreement and the redistribution of biodiversity

A project aiming to answer the central question of what will be the consequences of future climate changes to global marine biodiversity.

  • Additional projects
Biodiversity database of West Africa

A database structured under Darwin Core standards, offering a stable, straightforward and flexible framework for sharing biodiversity data to managers, scientists and the general public.

Consequences of future climate change for marine forests gene pools

A project aimed at investigating the effects of climate change on key marine forest species, such as kelp, fucoids and cold-water corals.

Diverse approaches to understanding aquaculture in a changing climate

A project to enhance aquaculture sustainability and suitability while fostering interdisciplinary collaboration.

Modeling aquaculture in a changing climate

A modeling approach to examine how climate change will impact marine aquaculture species and regions of marine aquaculture development.

DWC-GUI, a graphical interface for biodiversity data

DWC-GUI is a project aimed to help biologists, citizens and politicians query and visualise biodiversity data in a easy and fashion way.
