1、Ocean Data and AI for species conservation1The problem and at the same time our motivation is the loss of species diversity in the ocean,which is often also referred to as”invisible dying”.With our approach,we pursue the goal of making this dying visible and thus preventable.To make events in the oc

2、ean visible,we need to identify patterns depending on the ocean depth and then recognize deviations from these patterns.With the Norwegian institute Lofoten-Vesteralen,we are analyzing ocean data,to help detect anomalies.This should enable a better understanding of the ocean ecosystem.This should he
