Project Data

The core mission of the DTO-BioFlow Project is to unlock those “sleeping” biodiversity data enabling the sustained flow of these and new data via primary integrators and EMODnet into the EU Digital Twin Ocean. It will create a digital replica of marine biological processes transforming new and existing data flows into evidence-based knowledge. The project aligns with the EU's Biodiversity Strategy and Nature Restoration Law and with the mission "Restore our oceans and waters by 2030", both of which advocate for the protection and restoration of land and sea regions.

Title DTO-BioFlow: Integration of biodiversity monitoring data into the Digital Twin Ocean
Identifier Subsidy agreement ID 101112823
Funding This work used resources provided by the European Marine Omics Biodiversity Observation Network (EMO BON) project, coordinated by the European Marine Biological Resource Centre - European Research Infrastructure Consortium (EMBRC-ERIC).
Study Area Description Samples were collected at the EMO BON observatory HCMR-1 (Aegean Sea, Greece).
