This spring I had the opportunity to start “the understorey behind the forest”, a mediterranean project aiming to assess the canopy effect of gorgonian forests in its associated community #conservation #mesophotic #GoPro #scientificdiving #photogrammetry #coralligenous #bio #marineanimalforest #sea

Over the past two decades, the frequent marine heat waves are provoking an increase in the number and severity of mass mortality events. Gorgonians species are specially sensitive to thermal stress, suffering a constant decrease in their densities at Mediterranean scale.
