PROTECTING SCOTTISH SEAS

In his first assignment, Oceanographic’s current Storyteller in Residence, Henley Spiers, travels to Scotland to find out more about the country’s varied approaches to ocean conservation.

CORAL SYMBIOSIS

From rising sea temperatures and ocean acidification to crown-of-thorns starfish outbreaks, coral reefs in Southeast Asia are in peril. Photographer Giacomo d’Orlando travelled to the region to document various local research and restoration projects that have one united desire: to help bring back coral reefs to their former glory.

SERVICE AREA

As detection methods improve, new research has found that blue whales, the largest animals to have ever lived, spend much more time in the waters off the Azores than researchers have initially thought.

ICONS IN TROUBLE

With the increase of tourism and development, habitats are being damaged across the globe. In Florida, loss of habitat and an increase in boat strikes threatens one of the state’s most iconic species: the manatee. How long can it survive human pressures?

BEHIND THE LENS

In this edition of Behind the lens, we feature a selection of this year’s winning photographs from Ocean Photographer of the Year.
