In November 2022 we installed in C\u00edvitas Puerto Ban\u00fas, in collaboration with Ocean Ecostructures, 10 Life Boosting Units structures in different areas of the port that allow the regeneration of marine biodiversity, restoring life and allowing the revitalization and recycling of marine infrastructure and damaged environments.<\/b><\/p>\n

Once the first 4 months had passed, the <\/span>first monitoring of the structures<\/span><\/a> was carried out and during the inspection, the Ocean Ecostructures scientific team identified species present in each of the three points.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

After 6 months since the installation, we have received the second report on the evolution of the Bio Boosting System Marine Biodiversity Regeneration System in Puerto Ban\u00fas, with the results of the winter and spring period, with very surprising figures. The main results obtained in the <\/span>10 Life Boosting Units<\/strong> (LBU)<\/span> in the elapsed period (<\/span>6 months<\/strong>)<\/span> are shown.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Up to 56 different species have been reported<\/strong> growing or interacting<\/strong> with LBU structures. The reported figure represents an increase of <\/span>practically double the number of species<\/strong><\/span> compared to the values collected in March 2023 (34 species).<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

With 40 species, Zone 3 (Outer Mouth) was where the greatest richness was observed, housing 71% of the total census biodiversity. In Zone 2 (interior Bocana) 36 species were observed and in Zone 3 (interior), 16 species.<\/span><\/p>\n
