Last update: an hour agoMicroplastics Monitoring: Scientists from 21 African countries met in Accra to harmonise coastal microplastics monitoring protocols using nuclear and isotopic techniques, aiming for comparable data (20–300 micrometres) to guide evidence-based action against marine plastic pollution. Comoros in the Mix: Comoros is among the participating countries, linking local coastal research capacity to a wider regional push under the Ghana Atomic Energy Commission and IAEA programme RAF7022. Ocean Mapping Gap: A new look at global mapping shows less than 30% of the ocean floor is mapped to modern standards, leaving most of Earth’s seabed far less understood than Mars—an issue for future marine conservation and planning.
