Marine conservation
Marine conservation research seeks to protect and preserve ocean ecosystems and marine life. It focuses on understanding the impacts of human activities, such as pollution and overfishing, and developing strategies to mitigate these effects. We monitor marine species, habitats, and environmental changes, aiming to sustain biodiversity and promote healthy oceans. This field combines biology, ecology, and environmental science to ensure the long-term health of marine environments for future generations. See also the wider Exeter Marine group, that draws on researchers from across the whole University.
