A sign to protect our sea plant beds

As announced at the end of 2020, the sign promised by Rebecca James to La Réserve Naturelle has been installed at the edge of the beach at Baie Blanche on Tintamarre. This sign was financed by the NWO Caribbean as part of the SCENES project, with thanks to the support of La Réserve for the work done by this young doctoral student on the importance of the stabilizing role played by sea plants in limiting coastal erosion. Bilingual, French/English, the sign is there to educate the public about the free eco-system services provided by these plants: prevention of coastal erosion, as well as a nursery, providing food, production of sand, clarity of water by the shores… These underwater fields are weakened by the presence of the exotic invasive species, Halophila, introduced by boat anchors, as well as other types of pollution.
