Description
The European Marine Board Future Science Brief n°12 “Deep Sea Research and Management Needs” explores the complexity of the deep sea and its role in Ocean health today, highlights the critical ecosystem services and functions it provides, and underscores the risks to Ocean health in the face of climate change, direct human impacts, and future industries in the deep sea. The brief also navigates the complex legal landscape and management issues, discusses the challenges of studying the deep sea, and identifies significant knowledge gaps in biological, biogeochemical, physical, and geological deep-sea sciences, and in the spatial and temporal variability of the deep sea. This brief addresses the critical need to increase our knowledge on the deep sea, an often-overlooked yet vital component of our global ecosystem and climate regulation. Effective management of this environment require a robust scientific foundation and international cooperation.
