Video: diving with the dolphins through the Catlin Seaview Survey

Jacques Mayol and Jacques-Yves Cousteau made us dream but nothing can replace a real dive in the Big Blue. When one is lacking and it is not possible to escape the Red Sea or the Coral Triangle, we can get some fresh air with a virtual dive thanks to members of the Catlin Seaview Survey.

As explained one of the largest coral specialists, Professor Ove Hoegh-Guldberg, the future of hundreds of millions of people are threatened in the short term if nothing is done to preserve coral reefs . For this, two actions are being carried out by members of the Catlin Seaview Survey . The first is the creation of a huge database consisting largely of images taken around the world and that will serve as benchmarks to monitor coral reefs in response to climate change and the human. activity The second is the use of these images to sensitize the general public to encourage governments to take the decisions necessary for the protection of World Heritage submarine posed by these reefs.

These beautiful images were taken in 2012 at Myrmidon Reef, one of the reefs of the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. © Catlin Seaview Survey , YouTube
