About us

The IndiSeas project is a multi-institutes collaborative effort. One or two scientific experts from each ecosystem represented have calculated the necessary indicators and provided background information and overview of the status of their ecosystem. Indicator series currently extend to 2010, but the database will be updated on a regular basis.

The indiSeas project is co-funded by IOC/UNESCO (ioc-unesco.org), the European Network of Excellence EUROCEANS (www.eur-oceans.eu), the FRB project EMIBIOS (www.emibios.org), IRD (Institut de Recherche pour le Développement, www.ird.fr) and the European MEECE project (www.meece.eu)
