Scientific publications

The strong scientific character of SUBMON sustains all our projects and activities. Collaboration with other organizations, research centers and universities is key to providing relevant data and information that allow progress in marine conservation. This section shows some of the scientific publications and technical reports produced over the years, the result of research in the projects we work on.
