📍Fieldwork day in #ALLIES project: post-breeding colony check.

No gulls remained, but we recovered the GPS from a yellow-legged gull tagged in June that sadly died.

We keep monitoring environmental health to better understand urban ecosystem dynamics 🌍🩺.

🌔Last Friday we took part in the European Researchers’ Night with Ecosystems at play: the ocean’s delicate balance, part of the #PCBio project (EBD + @icmcsic.bsky.social).

A Jenga-inspired game to explore trophic networks and human impacts. 🌊🎲

The #COTI project tracks pelagic sharks in the Mediterranean to reduce bycatch.
🦈15 blue sharks tagged show key areas like Cap de Creus & Palamós.
Fishing and conservation can go hand in hand!

7️⃣ Bottom line:

Listening to fishers means listening to the sea 🌊
Their experience enriches data, guides management, and offers real-world solutions.

#BlueEconomy #SustainableFisheries

6️⃣ What about policy makers?

Fishers want fast, adaptive decisions.
⏳ “What works today might not work in 2 months.”

#StakeholderEngagement #FisheriesPolicy

5️⃣ But there’s one thing they all agree on:

We must protect spawning areas for sardines and anchovies.
🛑 “Bottom trawling is like a tractor destroying everything.”

#EnvironmentalJustice #ResponsibleFishing

4️⃣ What about the future?

Fishers express three distinct views:
🔹 “Less subsidies, more fish”
🔹 “More public support”
🔹 “It’s not in our hands”
