Today I'm talking about a very practical application for identifying sharks

iSharkFin is an expert system that uses machine learning techniques to identify shark species based on the shape of their fins. The software was developed by the FAO in collaboration with the University of Vigo, with financial support from the Government of Japan and the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES).

Nothing is as important to sustainable development as ocean biodiversity. Marine biodiversity, the diversity of life in the oceans and seas, is an essential aspect of the three pillars of sustainable development - economic, social and environmental. It is essential to the smooth running of the planet and provides services that ensure the health, well-being and prosperity of humankind.

The oceans are one of the world's main reservoirs of biodiversity. They make up over 90% of the planet's habitable space, and are home to some 250,000 known species, as well as many others that are not yet well known1.

Oceans and marine life are essential to the planet's functioning, providing half the oxygen we breathe and absorbing around 26% of anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere each year.

New evidence is emerging demonstrating the essential role of marine biodiversity for the health of the planet and social well-being. Fishing and aquaculture are a source of income for hundreds of millions of people, particularly low-income families, and contribute directly and indirectly to their food security. Marine ecosystems provide numerous services to coastal communities worldwide. For example, mangrove ecosystems are an important source of food for over 210 million people, but also provide many other services, such as livelihoods, clean water, forest products and protection against erosion and extreme weather events.

Lemurs are the most threatened larger group of mammals, with 94% of species facing extinction.

Over 6.5 years, the IUCN Save Our Species Lemurs initiative has been working to protect Madagascar’s lemurs with many conservation actions, including:

🌳 Ecosystem restoration
💪 Community empowerment
🚨 Anti-poaching measures

Explore the successes, challenges, and inspiring stories behind lemur conservation in Madagascar in the new Impact Report https://shorturl.at/bpFM6

GIS is a very important tool for locating or highlighting a study, and its programming and design is one of the most exciting activities.

Training courses in the use of GIS software will soon be organized. Stay tuned

We simulated the ekman spiral for learning purposes using MATLAB software.
The influence of wind decreases with depth. Current velocity decreases exponentially towards the deeper layers. But each layer of water is also subject to the Coriolis force.

For the surface layer, the resultant of these two forces is a current forming a 45° angle with the wind direction. The current is deflected to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere. This angle increases with depth, as the influence of the wind diminishes. This arrangement of current vectors in a column thus takes the form of a spiral, known as the Ekman spiral.

Petite Historique

L'idée de la journée a été adoptée lors du premier sommet international des personnes affectées par les barrages (International Meeting of People Affected by Dams). Les représentants de 20 pays ont décidé que la Journée international d’action aurait lieu le 14 mars, date de la journée d’action contre les grands barrages au Brésil.

Tous les ans, des milliers d'individus de par le monde élèvent la voix pour honorer les rivières du monde et les personnes qui luttent pour leur protection. La Journée international d'action pour les rivières est un jour où nous célébrons des victoires comme le démantèlement des barrages et la restauration de rivières.

We cannot conserve or protect an environment without knowing the species present in this environment.
