September
Event type: Project
Location: Sagres, Portugal
Contact: Diogo Paulo, diogo@gue.com
Date: September 6, 2021 to September 11, 2021
Description: During September GUE Instructors and researchers Nuno Padrão and Diogo Paulo are organizing a coral restoration project in Portugal - Sagres. The main goal of the project is to continue testing gorgonian transplantation methodologies, and monitor existing transplants.
In an unprecedented cooperation, researchers from the Centre of Marine Sciences have been working with local fishermen. The corals caught in fishing nets are rescued by the fishermen and later kept in aquariums where they are fed and monitored. Once healthy, and conditions allowing, these corals are transplanted back into the ocean using different methodologies. Unfortunately for this project there is no official funding, therefore volunteers must contribute with logistical costs associated with their participation.
The project is part of an ongoing research at the Centre of Marine Sciences, a non profit research institution located in the South of Portugal.
If you would like to collaborate with an active ongoing research effort, this is an opportunity for you!
The plan for the week includes:
-A Scientific Workshop, we will talk about ecosystem engineers and the current challenges faced. This will be held to prepare the teams for the tasks to be performed.
-At least 8 dives to deploy artificial reefs with gorgonian corals in 30-35m depth. Monitor the corals after deployment. Photo ID the corals to establish a baseline for growth and health monitoring. Monitor surrounding gorgonian reefs (15-30m depth).
Extra points of interest:
- Close from the deployment point there is "Torvore", a Norweigian WWI shipwreck that has been sunked by the famous U-35 submarine. It is a 75m ship with 3 decks (now collapsed), some cargo is still visible. This site is known to be frequently visited by Sun-Fish (Mola mola).
More on this historical wreck is available here, PDF with full history:
Flanders Marine Institute
- Several Marine Caves can be found within 5 mins from the harbor, offering one very interesting experience for those certified with Cave 1. Average depth is 10m offering a very interesting dive. Catedral and Queijo Suiço are the two most famous ones, with several dry domes and very interesting navigation. We can organize dives after the project dives if you are interested. Please advise us if such would be of your interest.
- The project will be developed in a Marine Protected Area, where biodiversity is high. The dive sites are mainly in walls, marine caves/caverns and rocky reefs close to shore.
Water temperature should be around 18ºC (16 to 21 depending on years, so dry suit is recommended), visibility varies from 5m to 20m, mild currents to none (only at the surface).
Price per person including all logistics (boats, gas, tanks, permits) excluding accommodation and food: 600 euros.
Accommodation can be found locally ranging from 250 for 4 nights up 1500 for an apartment for 2 people. We can help direct those interested in finding the best options for your budget and needs.
For accommodation, places of reference are::
Apartamentos Tonel
Memmo Baleeira
Aparthotel Navigator
Martinhal Resort
We are accepting Fundamentals (Tec pass) or above (ex. REC3 , T1), giving preference to certified GUE Scientific Divers, Documentation and Photogrammetry divers. Underwater photographers and videographers with their own gear are welcomed to join and help us reach out to the Global community with the outcome of this project.
