Real time monitoring of SEA contaminants by an autonomous Lab-on-a-chip biosensor (SEA-on-a-CHIP)
Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: May 31, 2017,
Early warning systems that can provide extreme sensitivity with exquisite selectivity are required to assess chemical contamination of estuarine and coastal areas. SEA-on-a-CHIP aims to develop a miniaturized, autonomous, remote and flexible immuno-sensor platform based on a fully integrated array of micro/nano-electrodes and a microfluidic system in a lab-on-a-chip configuration combined with ele ...

DEVelopment Of innovative Tools for understanding marine biodiversity and assessing good Environmental Status (DEVOTES)
Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2016,
The objectives are to:(i) improve our understanding of human activities impacts (cumulative, synergistic, antagonistic) and variations due to climate change on marine biodiversity, using long-term series (pelagic and benthic). This objective will identify the barriers and bottlenecks (socio-economic and legislative) that prevent the GES being achieved(ii) test the indicators proposed by the EC, an ...

Response of Ecosystem Assembly and Function to Climate Change: A multidisciplinary approach to understand community response to climate change in coastal rocky ecosystems (REAFCC)
Start date: Apr 28, 2014, End date: Aug 26, 2016,
Ocean ecosystems are among those most at risk from global climate change. Coastal water chemistry, and carbon chemistry in particular, is changing at a greater rate than ever before, and will drive coastal pH lower than has been experienced by any modern organism. Concurrently, on-going increases in seawater temperature will affect physiological processes at the organismal scale and cause shifts ...

"MEiobenthos in Shallow-water Marine ECosystems: A Monitoring, Experimental and Modelling Study to Understand Shallow-Water Meiobenthic Function in Marine Ecosystems and Assess its Economic Value" (MESMEC)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
"The project MESMEC aims at assessing, understanding and predicting structure, diversity, function and importance of meiobenthos (small invertebrate sediment dwelling organisms) in shallow-water ecosystems in order to understand and predict better marine ecosystem dynamics and function in general. To achieve this we will perform 1) long-term monitoring analysis to understand natural spatial and te ...
