- Full Description
-
A Spanish technological centre dedicated to promoting sustainable and competitive marine and maritime sectors is actively seeking collaboration opportunities under the HORIZON-CL6-2025-01-BIODIV-05 call. The centre brings extensive experience in connectivity analysis, habitat modelling, and restoration assessment, and is eager to partner with organisations pursuing innovative solutions in these areas.
With a strong track record in coordinating Horizon Europe projects, the centre also offers robust expertise in data management and FAIR principles, making it well-positioned to address a wide range of project needs—particularly in ecological restoration and climate change adaptation.
For this specific call, the R&D department is especially interested in developing reference states for habitats by leveraging existing literature to define Good Environmental Status (GES). Their goal is to create AI-based models that establish these reference states, ensuring precise and robust restoration targets. Additionally, the team is focused on developing best-practice guidelines and tools for selecting restoration areas based on diverse reference criteria.
The centre also plans to integrate climate change scenarios (including SSPs) into ecological models to enhance understanding of future ecosystem dynamics. Their work on protected area connectivity includes the analysis of buffer zones to assess functional connectivity and identify ecological gaps where restoration could strengthen network coherence. This will support decision-making for new protected areas, both at large scales and in coastal linkages.
Finally, the centre is committed to modelling species and habitats under climate change scenarios to ensure future resilience and biodiversity conservation. - Advantages and Innovations
