This complex project combines oceanographers, physicists, and biologists to better understand how ocean currents influence the distribution and behaviour of threatened species such as manta rays in the Indian Ocean. The development of oceanographic numerical models that simulate conditions throughout the Western Indian Ocean helps understand which factors create biodiversity hotspots that require the highest levels of protection.
Lead investigator: Dr. Phil Hosegood, University of Plymouth.

SHALLOW AND MESOPHOTIC BENTHOS REFERENCE IMAGE DATABASE FOR THE CHAGOS ARCHIPELAGO, CENTRAL INDIAN OCEAN
May 19, 2023
Diaz, Clara; Foster, L. Nicola; Howell, L. Kerry, 2024, "SHALLOW AND MESOPHOTIC BENTHOS REFERENCE IMAGE DATABASE FOR THE CHAGOS ARCHIPELAGO, CENTRAL INDIAN OCEAN", https://doi.org/10.5281/ZENODO.7948517
This catalogue covers the reef benthos of mesophotic coral ecosystems (MCEs) of the Chagos Archipelago (6° S, 71°30’ E), central Indian Ocean. The in-situ images presented here were collected during two expeditions, in November 2019 and March 2020. A Saab Seaeye Falcon Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) was used to collect benthic imagery of MCEs. Six...
