Marine Board publishes Future Science Brief on Marine Biodiversity

Marine Board Future Science Brief 1, Marine Biodiversity: A Science Roadmap for Europe, is now finalized and available for download (click on the link above). The document is designed to promote continued support for marine biodiversity research in Europe. It sets out a science roadmap and calls for improvement in key research capacities such as taxonomic expertise and biological observations. The importance of effective science-policy interfaces is also addressed.

Future Science Briefs (FSBs) are a new series of Marine Board publications which will rasie the profile and inform the European research agenda on topics of identified importance. Designed to be understood by a non-expert reader, FSBs have a similar function and target audience to Marine Board position papers but are much shorter in length (25-35 pages).
