This document discusses recommendations for environmental monitoring around deep-sea mining sites based on a discussion with international partners. It addresses international regulations for monitoring the deep-sea mining industry and the use of laboratory experiments and numerical modeling for monitoring. Key points discussed include defining best available scientific evidence, techniques, and practices. Visualizations show potential areas impacted by mining plumes and how monitoring the properties, indicator taxa, biological tolerances, and timescales of plumes is important.
Tropical coral reefs cover an area of over 284 000 km2, providing habitat for thousands of species and yielding more than US$ 30 billion annually in global goods and services, such as coastline protection, tourism and food. Corals reefs are now threatened by the increasing concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, while warmer sea temperatures are disturbing the delicate symbiosis between coral organisms and algae. For example, 16 per cent of all tropical coral reefs were killed off by thermal stress during a single extreme El Niño–Southern Oscillation event in 1997–1998. As a result of escalating atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide, more of this gas is being dissolved in the world’s oceans. This has already reduced ocean pH and the trend is projected to continue. Moreover, the altered ocean chemistry is expected to have major corrosive effects on marine ecosystems and to alter the calcification rates of corals, phytoplankton and other species.
High scientific demand, sustainable management of sea
resources, assessment and monitoring of pollution sources and of
their environmental impact, urgency to understand how does the
biologic processes link to the Carbon cycle and how do they
impact climate: oceanic biologic parameters (primary production,
biomass, and pelagic populations) are in the depths of vital stakes
for our society sustainable development.
Today, Mercator-Ocean is strongly involved in producing
operational bulletins of the physical “blue” ocean. To use new
requirements, it is going to integrate the forecasting of the living
world seas’ component and become more “green”. A first quasireal
time demonstration phase will be launched in the beginning of
2006. LOBSTER biologic model will be integrated in the Mercator
operational chain. This new stage was made possible thanks to
the Bionuts research/operational collaboration. Five structures
contribute to this project: LEGOS (Toulouse), LEGI (Grenoble),
IPSL/OCEAN and IPSL/LSCE (Paris) and the GIP Mercator-
Ocean. In the News, Patrick Monfray & al. present us this project,
its stakes, as well as some recent results.
The three other Newsletter’s articles present an overview of the
Mercator associated research works on the “biology” thematic.
François Royer & al. are interested on the pelagic species’ spatial
dynamic, unavoidable stage for a better management of the sea
resources.
A toxic bloom of the cyanobacteria, Nodularia
spumigena has been reported in the Baltic Sea. On
July 24, 2003, SeaWiFS captured this view of the
blooming Baltic. (credits NASA)
In the scope of the Bionuts project, Leo Berline & al. have studied the assimilation impact (temperature, salinity, sea level)
on the biologic parameters of coupled biology/physical model. In fact, the confrontation of physical models to biology
constraints has revealed some negative effects of the assimilation scheme on the vertical processes performance. So,
improve them is a crucial stake for the biology/physical coupling.
At last, coupling between biologic and physical models is a great opportunity for Scientists to investigate how does the
dynamic impact the biology. Isabelle Dadou & al. have looked at the Rossby waves influence on the primary production.

Miriam Kastner: Her findings on METHANE HYDRATES in Ocean Acidification Summ...www.thiiink.com
Atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) levels are rising as a result of human activities, such as fossil fuel burning, and are increasing the acidity of seawater. This process is known as ocean acidi cation. Historically, the ocean has absorbed approximately 30% of all CO2 released into the atmosphere
by humans since the start of the industrial revolution, resulting in a 26% increase in the acidity of the ocean1.
Ocean acidi cation causes ecosystems and marine biodiversity to change. It has the potential to affect food security and it limits the capacity of the ocean to absorb CO2 from human emissions. The economic impact of ocean acidi cation could be substantial.
Reducing CO2 emissions is the only way to minimise long-term, large-scale risks.

C5.02: The Global Ocean Acidification Observing Network: data for decisions -...Blue Planet Symposium
Ocean acidification describes the changes in seawater chemistry that result from the uptake of anthropogenic carbon dioxide by the ocean. The changes this century are predicted to have profound impacts on marine ecosystems with potential flow-on effects to economic and environmental services the ecosystems provide, including fisheries and aquaculture, coastal protection, and tourism. The Global Ocean Acidification - Observing Network (GOA-ON) has been developed in response to the widespread concern of the impacts of ocean acidification. The network is an internationally coordinated effort, combining ‘bottom up’ collaboration by the research community with ‘top down’ encouragement and support from a range of international bodies and organisations, including the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (UNESCO-IOC), the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), and the Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS). The aim is to provide chemical and biological data from local to global scales that can be used to improve understanding of ocean acidification conditions and ecosystem responses, and to provide uniformly collected and quality-controlled data to assist policy making through research products and model-based projections of ecosystem responses. Capability development is a key aspect of the network. The status and future plans of the GOA-ON initiative will be described – providing the opportunity for additional involvement in its implementation.
The immense region of the world’s seas has long enraptured human interest, filling in as both a wellspring of secret and a boondocks for logical investigation. Throughout the long term, propels in sea life science have unfurled like the pages of a convincing story, uncovering the complexities of maritime environments, the elements of marine life, and the significant impact of the seas on Earth’s environment. From the beginning of sea investigation to the present state of the art advancements, the excursion of understanding our seas has been set apart by constant development and disclosure.
This gathering plans to diagram the momentous advances in sea life science, giving a thorough outline of the developing scene of maritime exploration. We will investigate the pivotal moments, revolutionary technologies, and collaborative efforts that have shaped our understanding of the oceans as we delve into the depths of this multidisciplinary field. From the revelation of aqueous vents and the planning of sea flows to the investigation of outrageous remote ocean conditions, every part in this investigation of sea life science mirrors the vigorous quest for information that drives researchers, specialists, and pioneers the same.
The job of sea life science reaches out past the domains of unadulterated interest. It assumes a critical part in tending to squeezing worldwide difficulties, for example, environmental change, overfishing, and the protection of biodiversity. As we face a period of exceptional ecological change, the bits of knowledge acquired from sea life science become progressively crucial for educated independent direction and supportable administration regarding our seas.
Wetland restoration: an emerging issue and management in changing climateIARI, NEW DELHI
Wetlands provide significant social, economic and environmental benefits. Wetlands are associated with several activities like water storage, groundwater recharge, storm protection, flood mitigation, shoreline stabilization, erosion control, and retention of carbon, nutrients, sediments and pollutants. Wetlands can also produce services that have a significant economic value such as clean fresh water, fisheries, timber, peat, wildlife resources and tourism opportunities. The loss and degradation of wetlands is driven by several factors, i.e., climatic and non climatic. Presently increased demand for agricultural land to fulfill the food need associated with population growth continues to be a significant cause of wetland loss in some parts of the globe.
Socio-ecological valuation of ecosystem services along the West Antarctic Pen...Jeff Bowman
The Palmer Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) project is located along the West Antarctic Peninsula (WAP), one of the most rapidly warming regions on the planet. Despite its remoteness the WAP supports a variety of social and economic activities, most notably in the fishing and tourism industries and in international scientific research. Because of the growing pressures imposed by these activities, the rapid rate of environmental change, relatively pristine nature of the environment, its trophic complexity, and rich scientific record, the WAP is an ideal place to explore the impact of climate change on marine and terrestrial ecosystems and the services and benefits they provide. Here we present a schema to conduct an initial assessment of WAP marine and terrestrial ecosystem services that will serve as a critical baseline for future studies, and that is broadly applicable to other LTER sites. We will combine social valuation and qualitative, expert-based modelling to identify relevant ecosystem services and to conduct an initial assessment and valuation of ecosystem service supply for the WAP region. The Palmer LTER team of investigators includes experts in topics ranging from physical oceanographic processes, to microbiology, to marine avian and mammal ecology. Through interviews and an online survey we will evaluate the views and perceptions of Antarctic ecosystem services and their changes among this group of experts. Our focus will be on biophysical ecosystem services, but we will include cultural ecosystem services and the impacts of changes on ecosystem functioning and ecosystem service supply in the expert elicitations. This qualitative, socio-ecological valuation will guide an expanded future assessment of WAP ecosystem services that include economic and socio-cultural realms of ecosystem service as perceived and valued by an expanded pool of experts and stakeholders.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING AROUND DEEP-SEA MINING SITES
Discussion on international regulations for monitoring of Deep-Sea Mining industry
Understanding the combination of laboratory experiments with numerical modelling for monitoring aspects
Laurenz Thomsen, Jacobs University Bremen
With Input from:

Ecosystems associated with polymetallic nodules are thought
to recover extremely slowly (decades to centuries) or
potentially not at all, shifting into an alternate regime based on
benthic impact experiments that have simulated some aspects
of mining activities.
Since deep-sea mining has not yet begun, most information on
plume generation is theoretical or based on fine-scale field
experiments
Early papers that modelled the spread of plumes suggested
they may have an impact 100 km away from the mine site in
nodule areas, and this figure was used in the design of buffer
zones around Areas of Particular Environmental Interest in the
Clarion Clipperton Zone (CCZ), to prevent impact in the core
area.

ISA calls for use of the Best Available Scientific Evidence (BASE), Best Available Techniques (BAT) and the
Best Environmental Practices (BEP).
“Best Available Scientific Evidence” means the best scientific information and data accessible and
attainable
“Best Available Techniques” means the latest stage of development, and state-of- the-art processes, of
facilities or of methods of operation.
“Best Environmental Practices” means the application of the most appropriate combination of
environmental control measures and strategies, that will change with time in the light of improved
knowledge.

ndustrial activities spanning from fisheries to oil and gas extraction
are accelerating anthropogenic pressures on the deep sea1–3
, lead-
ing to the degradation of benthic and pelagic environments, where
biological diversity remains largely unknown (Box 1). However,
global impacts have not spared deep-sea ecosystems4–7
and species
loss and habitat destruction severely alter an increasing portion of
deep-sea ecosystems2,8,9
. Cumulative anthropogenic impacts act
synergistically with climate-induced changes on properties and pro-
cesses of the deep ocean, thus degrading environmental quality10–12
.
Deep-sea biodiversity plays a central role in provisioning ser-
vices (for example, food, biochemical compounds for human health
and wellbeing), and species loss can greatly reduce ecosystem func-
tions that support these services8
. Furthermore, high biodiversity
levels increase ecosystem resilience to perturbations13
, elevating the
importance of maintaining biodiversity as a key management objec-
tive in the pursuit of sustainable use of resources14
.
Sustaining healthy and productive deep oceans requires knowl-
edge of baseline conditions and rates of change in marine ecosys-
tems. The environmental status and resources of the coastal zones
link to deep-sea ecosystems6,15
through bi-directional exchanges of
materials, nutrients, contaminants and organisms16–18
; changes in
one system may therefore impact others. Several ongoing initiatives
consider the need for monitoring baseline conditions in marine
shallow and deep-sea ecosystems and their changes (Box 2).
The Group on Earth Observations Biodiversity Observation
Network (GEO BON) has proposed some Essential Biodiversity
Variables (EBVs), to set up future monitoring programs19
. These
variables are organized into six classes and are general enough to be
applied to terrestrial, freshwater and marine realms20
.
The Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS) has started the
identification of the Essential Ocean Variables (EOVs21
) and has
promoted the Deep Ocean Observation Strategy (DOOS), which
enhances the need for identification of EOVs relevant to the deep-
sea environment22
. However, GOOS EOVs do not include the anal-
ysis of stressors (for example, habitat integrity, pollutants, plastics
and so on), which are clearly needed to assess deep-sea ecosystem
health. Moreover, the monitoring of deep-sea ecosystems for bio-
diversity conservation requires specific variables and technological

The deep sea (>200 m depth) encompasses >95% of the world’s ocean volume and represents the largest and least explored
biome on Earth (<0.0001% of ocean surface), yet is increasingly under threat from multiple direct and indirect anthropogenic
pressures. Our ability to preserve both benthic and pelagic deep-sea ecosystems depends upon effective ecosystem-based
management strategies and monitoring based on widely agreed deep-sea ecological variables. Here, we identify a set of deep-
sea essential ecological variables among five scientific areas of the deep ocean: (1) biodiversity; (2) ecosystem functions;
(3) impacts and risk assessment; (4) climate change, adaptation and evolution; and (5) ecosystem conservation. Conducting
an expert elicitation (1,155 deep-sea scientists consulted and 112 respondents), our analysis indicates a wide consensus
amongst deep-sea experts that monitoring should prioritize large organisms (that is, macro- and megafauna) living in deep
waters and in benthic habitats, whereas monitoring of ecosystem functioning should focus on trophic structure and biomass
production. Habitat degradation and recovery rates are identified as crucial features for monitoring deep-sea ecosystem
health, while global climate change will likely shift bathymetric distributions and cause local extinction in deep-sea species.
Finally, deep-sea conservation efforts should focus primarily on vulnerable marine ecosystems and habitat-forming species.
Deep-sea observation efforts that prioritize these variables will help to support the implementation of effective management
strategies on a global scale.

ncreasing exploration and industrial ex-
ploitation of the vast and fragile deep-
ocean environment for a wide range of
resources (e.g., oil, gas, fisheries, new
molecules, and soon, minerals) raises
global concerns about potential ecologi-
cal impacts (1–3). Multiple impacts on deep-
sea ecosystems (>200 m below sea level;
~65% of the Earth's surface is covered by
deep ocean) caused by human activities may
act synergistically and span extensive areas.
Cumulative impacts could eventually cause
regime shifts and alter deep-ocean life-sup-
port services, such as the biological pump
or nutrient recycling (2, 4, 5). Although
international law and national legislation
largely ignore the deep sea’s critical role in
the functioning and buffering of planetary
systems, there are promising developments
in support of deep-sea protection at the
United Nations and the International Sea-
bed Authority (ISA). We propose a strategy
that builds from existing infrastructures to
address research and monitoring needs to
inform governments and regulators.
Growing demands for ocean space and
seabed resources have generated a need for
international laws and policies (6) to enable

The spatio-temporal distribution of seven abundant morphospecies (i.e. taxa identified based on morphological
traits) and the diversity of the benthic megafaunal community at the Barkley Canyon hydrates site (870 m,
Vancouver Island, BC, Canada) were assessed in 18 linear imaging transects (each transect ~30 m long), con-
ducted with an Internet Operated Deep-sea Crawler in November 2016. Faunal counts (as proxy for local
abundances) were treated as Poisson-behaving variables and were modeled and correlated to habitat quality (i.e.
level of physical seafloor disturbance, as previously induced by the crawler), fluctuating oceanographic condi-
tions (i.e. tides and currents, seasonal transitions and episodic particle fluxes) and temporally and spatially
varying food availability (i.e. elevated chlorophyll levels, proximity to the hydrate mounds as additional energy
sources). The model outcome was used to establish a potential trigger-notification procedure for substrate dis-
turbance monitoring when ratios of faunal abundances exceed the expected range for any morphospecies.
Finally, a quality assessment of the crawler’s performance as a multidisciplinary monitoring platform was
performed using individual and morphospecies accumulation curves, which aids in optimizing and standardizing
data collection protocols. We showed that the abundances and diversity of hydrates megafaunal community
differed in relation to physical seafloor disturbance, proximity to the hydrate mounds and episodic food input, at
varying degrees. Our work sets a solid base for the future real-time, long-term monitoring of ecosystem func-
tioning and health status in deep-sea areas exposed to industrial substrate alterations (i.e. mining, fisheries, etc.).
1. Introduction
The deep sea covers more than half of the planet’s surface and in-
cludes many diverse and extreme environments (Ramírez-Llodra et al.,
2010, 2011; Sutton et al., 2017). In this scenario, science is competing
with industry to explore areas where resource extraction has been
planned in advance (Danovaro et al., 2017; Boetius and Haeckel, 2018).
The ever-altering effects of human activities on the biodiversity of both
well-studied and yet-to-be-explored deep-sea ecosystems (Barnes et al.,
2013) point out the need for the rapid improvement of our knowledge
regarding species presence, abundance, life traits and resulting biodi-
versity in deep benthic areas (Ruhl et al., 2011; Snelgrove et al., 2014;
Van Dover et al., 2017).
Among different deep-sea habitats, the study of submarine canyons
has gained special attention on a scientific, economic and societal level
(Fernández-Arcaya et al., 2017, Matos et al., 2018). By enhancing cross
shelf-break exchange, canyons can act as conduits for sediment, organic
matter, nutrients, energy and fish larvae, while their complex mor-
phology leads to high local and regional spatial heterogeneity of ha-
bitats (Allen and Durrieu de Madron, 2009; De Leo et al., 2010, 2012;
Levin and Sibuet, 2012; Robert et al., 2014; Domke et al., 2017). Pulses
of phytodetritus outside the main spring and summer surface plankton
blooms can be directed towards deeper waters through canyons, con-
tributing to the function of the oceanic biological pump (Thomsen
et al., 2017). These fluxes can provide an additional energy source for
benthic invertebrates and thus modify the local abundances and be-
havior of benthic megafauna (De Leo et al., 2012; Thomsen et al.,
2017), especially in depths within oxygen minimum zones (OMZs) for
heterotrophs tolerant to low oxygen (Domke et al., 2017).
The complexity and extreme nature of canyon ecosystems, along
with the ever increasing societal concern for their management and
protection, directs deep-sea research into a new era of ‘smarter’

Analysis of sediment particle size distribution
Attention should be paid to the location site of the mining
activity and the sediments that predominate there. Sedi-
mentological grain sizes in the German nodule license
area in the CCZ showed a multimodal size distribution
pattern. Sediments from the vast abyssal plain environ-
ment generally exhibit a finer grain size (d50
= 20 µm), in
agreement with the particle size spectrum obtained from
several other deep-sea locations (McCave, 1984; Bianchi
and McCave, 2000; Thomsen and Gust, 2000). Coarser
sediments (d50
= 32 µm) were found near seamounts and
ridges. Sediment size distribution in the area is controlled
by the hydrodynamic regime of the respective environ-
ment following the sortable silt theory (McCave et al.,
1995). In a higher current velocity field, such as at the
base of a seamount or ridge (White et al., 2008), sediment
particle selection and sorting result in coarser particle size
distribution over time.
Sampled at the side of a large seamount, the sediment
core 106 MUC depicted the highest median particle size
(d50
= 52 µm; Figure 2). This site was dominated by larger
biogenic deposition (particles > 63 µm) throughout the
entire depth of the sediment core, suggesting that bio-
logically derived material predominantly accumulates at
this site. To date, no record of size-dependent, particulate
organic carbon (POC) content for this study site is availa-
ble. According to Mewes et al. (2014) and Volz et al. (2018),
the total organic carbon (TOC) concentration varies
between 0.2 and 0.6 [wt.%] in the German licensed area in
the CCZ. Taking into account the generally low sedimenta-
tion rate of ca. 5 mm 10–3
year–1
in the CCZ (Khripounoff
et al., 2006), this seamount which rises to a water depth
of 2300 m is unlikely to cause elevated biological produc-
tion at the sea surface but interferes with the deep-sea
currents, producing a wake effect (Roden, 1991; Comeau
et al., 1995). As seamounts and ridges are considered a
hotspot for biodiversity (Samadi et al., 2006; Sautya et al.,
2011), they should remain out of the dispersion path of a
mining plume.

scale) of sediment deposition is shown for three particle size classes (d25
, d50
, and d75

What we learned so far:
As experimentally derived, modelled and measured: the plume remains mostly withing the first
few kilometres around the exploration site
A fine fraction (> 0.1 mg/l) is exported
AI based data analyses from AUV deployments and sensors greatly enhance sustainable
