#QuantitativeAquatics joined the relaunch of the ASEAN Biodiversity #KnowledgePlatform (#ABKP) last Sept. at the ASEAN Centre for Biodiversity (#ACB) in Los Baños, Philis. 🌊 ABKP serves as a regional gateway to streamline #biodiversitydata access & collaboration across #ASEAN.

#EVENTSPOTLIGHT: The 3rd & final day of the #FishBase & SeaLifeBase Symposium @UBCoceans is dedicated to “Celebrating Daniel Pauly at 80”, highlighting his pioneering concepts, theories, & info systems as drivers of marine/freshwater conservation in the context of global change.

🐟 The FishBase & SeaLifeBase Symposium continues! Alex Tilley of WorldFish presents “Progress Towards a Data Cube for Fish,” exploring how FishBase, SeaLifeBase, AquaMaps, and FAO Statistics can work together to answer questions across datasets.

Tobias Musschoot presents “WoRMS Beyond Taxonomy,” exploring the shift from names to curated identities & the immense work behind connecting marine biodiversity data across systems. Different platforms have different strengths—so how do we connect them to make the most of each?

The FishBase & SeaLifeBase Symposium is underway! 🌊 Nicolas Bailly is now presenting SemantyFish, an OSCARS-funded project transforming #FishBase into a next-generation semantic web knowledge base—making its data more interoperable, discoverable, accessible & machine-readable.

Jennifer Jacquet highlights Daniel Pauly’s decades of work & dedication with “FishBase: The Gift That Keeps on Giving” at the heart of her talk, on the 1st day of the FishBase & SeaLifeBase Symposium: Marine & Freshwater Conservation in the #BlueEconomy, being held at @UBCoceans.
