The persistent rains of recent days in northern Spain have caused a very noticeable increase in river flow in the Basque Country. See predictions from #EUSCOMvu @azti.bsky.social #NOWSystems #Copernicus #GES4SEAS #OBAMA-NEXT

If the AI bubble bursts, what will it mean for #research?

The rise in artificial-intelligence technologies is unprecedented, but some predict a stock-market crash that could have knock-on effects for funding and jobs.

The #ocean provides for all of us, but that is not the end of the story. We are part of the ecosystem and we need to respect that. The fish 🐟 we eat, the corals 🪸 that protect our coast, with our actions we influence them, harm them and in doing so can harm ourselves.

Without EBM, we often manage with 'tunnel vision'. A law to protect one species may unintentionally harm another, or a new coastal industry could pollute fishing grounds. This fragmented approach often fails to solve the root problems of ecosystem decline. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EsS3YvEWHEg

Tikta includes some methods such as the Cumulative Effects Assessment and Nested Environmental status Assessment.
It brings every step of data handling, processing and visualization together in one place, supporting the #MSFD, the EU Biodiversity Strategy and the Nature Restoration Law.

On #WorldScienceDay 🌊 meet Tikta, #GES4SEAS project software to assess risks and impacts from cumulative pressures and map the environmental status of sea. Name is inspired by Tiktaalik a Greenland word as it can be used for both marine and terrestrial assessments.
