As part of the LIFE Marha project, the French Biodiversity Office is leading a European platform on marine habitats. Building on previous work on Posidonia meadows, Atlantic medio- and infralittoral rocks, and deepwater habitats in the western Mediterranean, the LIFE team is now organizing the project’s final conference. This event will focus on marine sedimentary habitats in the medio-, infra-, and circalittoral zones upstream of the continental slope within the European Atlantic Biogeographic region (North Sea, Celtic Sea, and South European Atlantic Shelf).
In order to build up its programme, Life Marha is launching a call for presentations, which is open to scientists with knowledge and data on the description, distribution, state of health and sensitivity of these habitats and the documented impacts, as well as to managers and government departments implementing conservation management measures.
