About This Project
Climate change and events that modify the global temperature and precipitation dynamics such as “El Niño” affect Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) directly. This project aims to develop the Ecuadorian Geoportal of Ocean-Atmospheric Parameters (GEPOA) with satellite ocean-atmospheric data to monitor and predict changes affecting MPAs. GEPOA will empower MPA managers, government agencies, and researchers to improve monitoring, enforcement, and decision-making for marine conservation.
