7 Ιουν 2022 · The ocean holds about 97% of the world’s water and supports 90% of the planet’s biosphere. The ocean is also of vital importance for life on our planet, serving as a support system that helps to mitigate climate change, produce oxygen, and provide food and economic possibilities for humanity.
The ocean contains an astonishing totality of genetic species and ecosystem diversity still mostly unknown but with significant implication for food production, energy, public health, business and industry, ecosystem services, and leisure, cultural and aesthetic value.
5 Ιουν 2017 · The oceans appear ideal for biodiversity — they have unlimited water, a large area, are well connected, have less extreme temperatures than on land, and contain more phyla and classes than land and fresh waters. Yet only 16% of all named species on Earth are marine.
26 Νοε 2018 · Oceans are seriously under-protected: just over 1% of the ocean surface is designated as protected areas, compared to nearly 15% of protected-area coverage on land. Oceans cover 70% of our planet and represent over 95% of the biosphere.
10 Οκτ 2018 · Here, we used phylogenetic approaches to address the causes of richness patterns among global marine regions, comparing the relative importance of colonization time, number of colonization events, and diversification rates (speciation minus extinction).
Pressures on coastal and marine biodiversity continue to increase, as an estimated 40 per cent of the world’s population lives within 100km of the coast, putting unsustainable strain on coastal...
28 Ιουλ 2010 · In conclusion, we found two distinct patterns of global marine biodiversity, one for species primarily associated with coastal habitats, the other for open ocean taxa.
