@plantprojecterc.bsky.social
PLAnT is a 5-year research project funded by the European Research Council (ERC-2023-StG) based at Ciências ULisboa. It explores the benefits and challenges of developing comprehensive climate-smart marine spatial planning in the Southern Ocean.
📢PLAnT project will be present at the XVII Portuguese Polar Science Conference, with four oral comunications.
This year the conference focuses on the topic “Humans in the Polar Regions”, highlighting the experiences, challenges, and impacts of human presence in polar and analogous environments! 🌍🌊
