The Convex Seascape Survey is a pioneering five-year research project that is attempting to unlock one of the great mysteries of our time – the role of seabed carbon in mitigating climate change.
The Solent Seascape Project aims to recover a dynamic network of habitats, where ocean meets coastline, as the first project of its kind in the UK.
Rich in sea life, poor in conservation – Greece aims to transform that narrative with a recent commitment to protecting 32 per cent of its waters by 2030. Blue Marine supports ocean protection here across ten different projects .
Over 96 per cent of highly productive and biodiverse kelp beds have been lost along the Sussex coast in the past 40 years. Protected by a trawling ban that Blue Marine and partners helped secure, research shows how marine life is bouncing back.
Supported by local volunteers, the Blue Marine team has relayed vast amounts of oysters into the Solent, to restore the beds and reefs that make up one of the world’s most imperilled types of marine habitat.
Home to endangered marine species and vital coastal habitats, the Amvrakikos Gulf is becoming a dead zone. But a bold new restoration initiative aims to protect, restore, and re-connect this rich and unusual ecosystem.
With support from Blue Marine, the islanders and fishers of Salina have pushed back against overfishing to designate the first marine protected area in the nature-rich archipelago.
As wild fish stocks are depleted and the world’s growing population continues to demand seafood, aquaculture is booming. Blue Marine is driving innovation to make this destructive industry more sustainable.
From kelp forests and cold-water corals to blue whales and orcas, Patagonia teems with exceptional biodiversity. Blue Marine works with multiple partners to promote the creation of marine protected areas (MPAs) that can keep this wild place wild.
Blue Marine Foundation has helped transform the isolated UK Overseas Territory of Ascension Island into a vast no-take zone where marine life proliferates.
Posidonia Oceanica seagrass is one of the most important blue carbon ecosystems in the Mediterranean, and supports crucial fisheries. To counter threats from pollution, coastal development and anchoring, Blue Marine is pioneering techniques to restore it.
They are the key instrument of ocean conservation, and Blue Marine has 15 years’ experience in their creation. To help anyone on the journey to establishing MPAs, we have distilled our insights into a toolkit and guide.
Blue Marine is working in Brussels and around Europe to use marine protected areas (MPAs) and fisheries laws – and case-study experience from our own projects – to help restore our conjoined seas.
From kelp forests and cold-water corals to blue whales and orcas, the waters of southern Chile teem with exceptional biodiversity. Blue Marine works with multiple partners to keep this wild place wild.
The Akrotiri peninsular in the south of the island is home to carbon-trapping seagrass beds, rocky coral reefs and sandbars. Blue Marine has been working with partners to have it designated a marine protected area (MPA).
This island cluster of the Dutch Caribbean hosts a huge variety of species, many of them unique. Local governments and conservation groups have made major marine protection commitments — and Blue Marine is supporting their delivery.
When the Caribbean nation committed to protecting 30 per cent of its waters in 2024, Blue Marine supported the designation of two extensive marine protected areas. These will be safe home for an abundance of animal and plant life.
Reefs formed by native oysters are one of the most threatened marine habitats in Europe. Blue Marine is part of a collaborative project that is restoring these oyster on the river Blackwater in Essex.
