Marine Ecological Protection and Marine Biological Research

一、英文改编正文

The world’s oceans hold rich biological resources

and maintain the balance of the global climate system

by absorbing carbon dioxide

and regulating the temperature of the atmosphere.

Marine biologists carry out long-term field observations

to record the living habits, reproduction patterns

and population changes of various marine creatures

across coastal waters and deep-sea zones.

Human activities such as overfishing, coastal construction

and plastic waste discharge

have damaged marine habitats

and threatened the survival of many vulnerable marine species.

Advanced underwater submersibles and high-definition camera devices

allow researchers to reach the dark deep-sea environment

and discover new species

that have never been documented by human beings before.

Artificial intelligence (AI) processes massive underwater video materials

and automatically identifies marine organisms,

which greatly cuts down manual identification time

and improves the efficiency of ocean biological surveys.

Marine protected areas are designated in key sea regions

to restrict destructive fishing activities,

restore damaged coral reefs and seagrass beds,

and create safe breeding spaces for marine wildlife.

Joint marine conservation actions among different countries

help control ocean pollution on a global scale,

protect marine biodiversity

and preserve the stable ecological functions of the whole marine system.
