Action MS1 : Participate in the monitoring of marine biocenoses within the network of reserves
Julien Chalifour has lent his support to the management team of the Petite-Terre national nature reserve in Guadeloupe by participating in the annual monitoring of the health of its reefs and seagrass beds. This year’s mission, part of a long-standing partnership, also benefited from the expertise of Sébastien Gréaux from the Territorial Environmental Agency of Saint Barthélemy. This mission was coordinated and led by specialist engineers from the Créocéan study office. The dives allowed for the assessment of the extent of the recent coral bleaching in Guadeloupe, including the observation of mortality in a large number of historical elkhorn coral colonies, Acropora palmata.
