On March 29, 2025, the event "Blue Dimension: The Underwater World and the Environmental and Marine Heritage Available to Biologists in Emilia-Romagna and Marche" was held in the former Refectory Hall of the San Paolo Cloister in Ferrara.
The event, aimed at professional biologists, researchers, students, and other environmental professionals, was designed to offer advanced training opportunities, experience sharing, and debates on sustainability, conservation, and managing marine ecosystems.
The program included presentations by national experts and roundtable discussions exploring the opportunities the underwater world offers in scientific, educational, and professional contexts.
Professor Massimo Ponti presented the LIFE NatuReef project during his talk, "Restoration of Oyster and Sabellaria Habitats for Biodiversity Enhancement and Coastal Zone Protection. " Dr. Eva Turicchia showcased examples of spatial analysis that will also be applied in the LIFE NatuReef project area in her presentation, 'Spatial Distribution Analysis of Benthic Species in Coastal Sedimentary Marine Environments."
The National Federation of the Order of Biologists organized the event, which was patronized by the Italian Biologists Foundation and the Municipality of Ferrara.
