- MISSION ATLANTIC
- Description @en
- The “mission” of Mission Atlantic is to investigate how multiple pressures within and across important sub-areas affect the resilience of the Atlantic Ocean to future climate and societal changes. The project will tackle this question by advancing knowledge on ecosystem processes as well as applying new observation technology and state-of-the-art predictive capacity to develop an operational regional and basin-scale Integrated Ecosystem Assessment (IEA).
