In the Marine Protected Area of ​​Baia degli Infreschi, monitoring activities are underway on the Posidonia oceanica mat re-stitching plant

Monitoring activities are underway on the repair plant of the Posidonia oceanica carpet damaged by anchors at the Marine Protected Area of ​​Baia degli Infreschi, as part of the LIFE SEAForest project.

ISPRA researchers, with the support of the Carabinieri Underwater Unit of Naples, are observing an increase in the rooting of Posidonia cuttings at the plant. This bodes well for the success of the project which is already achieving, in the areas near the Asinara MPA and the Maddalena National Park, a survival rate of 80/90% of the seedlings inserted as repair of the damaged carpet, in view of active restoration actions.
