Oceanography

Changes in the geographic distribution of Posidonia oceanica and Cymodocea nodosa affect the communities hosted by these two species.

Using state-of-the-art instruments such as Saildrones, the research was led by OGS in collaboration with CNR-ISMAR, CNR-IAS, Ca’ Foscari University, and other European institutes. It provided new insights into the variability of air–sea CO₂ exchanges in the eastern Atlantic and the Mediterranean

The network was developed within the framework of the PNRR ECCSELLENT project

The study, titled "A multi-observation analysis of the 2017 dense water formation events: climate change, bottom density currents and Adriatic-Ionian Sea circulation (Mediterranean Sea)", provides a detailed reconstruction of the 2017 dense water formation event which occurred in the Adriatic Sea.

A five-year framework agreement to pool their competencies and establish a structured collaboration

Two days of discussion among research bodies, universities and businesses to illustrate the progress of the PNRR project area dedicated to environmental degradation

The award ceremony will take place on 11 November at the CNR headquarters in Rome

A new study has been published in the journal Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science

Transitional environments such as rivers, estuaries, deltas, lagoons and coasts represent the point of contact between land and sea, and provide ecosystem services of great importance – from food production to water supply and transport. However, they are complex and fragile ecosystems, increasingly

An international study involving OGS used underwater acoustics to monitor the presence of sperm whales over time and to reconstruct the composition of the populations visiting these areas
