Optimising Seagrass Restoration for Wildlife: From Science to Strategy in Denmark’s Vejle Fjord

Posted by Akshata Mehta
On June 12, 2026

Seagrasses are among the ocean’s most important ecosystems, yet they have been disappearing globally at alarming rates. In Denmark’s Vejle Fjord, decades of eutrophication had reduced seagrass from depths of 10 to just 2.5 metres, with drastically reduced coverage. Restoration efforts began in 2019, but a critical question remained unanswered: were the restored habitats actually […]

The Global Wetlands Project (GLOW) brings together partners across countries to monitor mangrove ecosystems using shared field methods, camera systems, sensors, and automated data tools. As mangrove degradation continues to affect coastlines worldwide, restoration efforts often focus on forest structure and canopy, while far less attention is given to animals —crabs, fish, mudskippers, molluscs, and […]

By Diego Gloria Global mangrove crab monitoring is underway, with partners around the world carrying out regular field surveys using GLOW’s standardised crab monitoring assay. Our assay balances local knowledge and context with consistent monitoring methods. This has been made possible through regular discussions with partners and improvements to workflows, leading to robust data that […]

Shellfish reefs are important coastal ecosystems that help stabilise shorelines, filter water, and provide habitat for marine life. In subtropical Queensland, however, many of these reefs have declined dramatically, and major gaps have remained in our understanding of where they once occurred, where they still persist, and what condition they are in today. A new […]

Monitoring marine and coastal ecosystems is essential for conservation, but traditional survey methods are time-consuming, costly, and difficult to scale. FishID.org is changing that. By using AI to automatically identify, count, and measure fish and other marine animals in underwater video footage, FishID enables researchers to collect high-quality data more efficiently and at much larger […]

Download the Shellfish Reef Fact Sheet. New collaborative project between Department of the Environment, Tourism, Science and Innovation (DETSI) and GLOW will map shellfish reef in southeast Queensland. Significant shellfish reef declines have occurred in southeast Queensland. Knowledge of the distribution and condition of these ecosystems in this region is currently limited, but essential […]
