Hoe monitoren wij de gezondheid van de visbestanden en het mariene ecosysteem? 👉ILVO Marien stelde vandaag het onderzoek naar duurzame visserij voor aan een delegatie van de Permanente Vertegenwoordiging van België in de Europese Unie. ilvo.vlaanderen.be/nl/dossiers/pr…

Thrilled to see this piece published in @GlobalChangeBio, representing several years of fruitful discussion in our @ICES_ASC working group. Thanks to all members of #WGAGFA for their helpful insights! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

1/ @MarineBEACON_EU is a newly-funded @HorizonEU Project that aims to address gaps in our current understanding of how fisheries #bycatch impacts protected, endangered and threatened species.

Today we finished our annual Beam Trawl Survey in the North Sea with @HowBigIsBelgica. Lots of fish, fascinating species, eDNA samples and beautiful sunsets. @ILVOvlaanderen

A ground-breaking study by 43 international scientists from 26 institutions led by Dr. Maxime Geoffroy sounds the alarm on #climatechange consequences for #Arctic cod and the entire Arctic #ecosystem. @MaximeGeoffroy1 gazette.mun.ca/research/north…

Could not agree more with the concluding message of @GEANS_Interreg. Great work @SofieDerycke, @LaureVdBulcke, @ReindertN and partners!

@FlorVermassen @FormasForsk Fantastic news, Flor! 👏

Have been awarded a supernice grant from @FormasForsk 🥳! I will be studying past sea-ice changes north of Greenland. Really excited to get this 4-year project going😀

This afternoon, @ICES_ASC #WGAGFA members looked for inspiration away from computer screens... fresh ideas and interesting discussions in a wonderful location @Bizkaia

New paper out! We show the potential of eDNA to estimate abundance and biomass parameters for stock assessments of flatfishes in the North Sea. @ILVOvlaanderen @SofieDerycke.

Is bulkDNA metabarcoding reliable? We did a proficiency test and show similar marine macrobenthos patterns irrespective of the institute processing the samples or minor changes to the lab protocol. Another step towards implementation of DNA-based monitoring! @GEANS_Interreg

#Brexit has far-reaching consequences for Flanders' fishing fleet. New #BAR-project examining opportunities for small-scale and sustainable coastal niche fisheries. @ILVOvlaanderen #VLIZ #brexitadjustmentreserve by @VLAIO_be @Departement_EWI🦐🦑🦞For more: bit.ly/3obhSgl

Educative day filled with marine science for the @KU_Leuven students as part of the Marine Ecology course. Thanks for having us @VLIZnews, @ILVOvlaanderen and the crew of RV Simon Stevin!

Een combinatie van microscopie en DNA-analyse gaf Sarah Maes (@KU_leuven) en Fokje Schaafsma (@WURmarine) nieuwe inzichten in het dieet van de Arctische kabeljauw 👉bit.ly/3h1adxe @AWI_Media #globalwarming #klimaatverandering #klimaatweek #COP27

@kristof_smeyers 👀

iemand voor de Limburgse versie? ik heb (zo goed als) alle benodigdheden

@KamielDebeucke1 @FWOVlaanderen @kuleuven_fwet Congratulations, Kamiel 😊

Up high for working together with the bumblebees next 4 years thanks to @FWOVlaanderen! Very excited about this PhD fellowship starting next month 🥳 @kuleuven_fwet

Happy to be back at @KU_Leuven as guest lecturer on Marine Ecology!

⁦⁦⁦@ILVOvlaanderen⁩ enjoying the networking and interactive sessions in real life and exploring the hybrid format of @ICESASC22 with additional colleagues online!

20 fantastic contributions illustrating how eDNA can help fisheries in session P of #ICESASC22! Help us make a SWOT analysis during our interactive session ⁦@stefanako71⁩ ⁦@TomEcoMod⁩ ⁦@ILVOvlaanderen⁩

@GregBioGenomics @NonacusLtd Fantastisch nieuws, Greg! Veel succes!
