This is the main conclusion of a new study led by the Institut de Ciències del Mar (ICM-CSIC) and the Public Health Agency of Barcelona (ASPB).

It is the main conclusion of a state-wide report prepared by the citizen science platforms Observadores del Mar and RedPROMAR.

The discovery was made a few weeks ago in the framework of an international oceanographic campaign in which the ICM-CSIC has played a key role.

This is the main conclusion of a study in collaboration with the ICM-CSIC that has been published recently in the journal Global Change Biology.

Thanks to the scientific data provided by the Institute it has been possible to confirm the ecological and geological uniqueness of the enclave, which has led the authorities to prohibit fishing in the area from 2024.

This citizen science event tripled observations in its third year, surpassing 60,000 photographs and species identifications.
