- Quantification of the ecosystem services provided by these meadows related to nutrient and carbon sequestration, coastal protection and the role of these species as breeding and breeding areas for species of fishing or recreational interest.
- Creation of a potential distribution model for C. nodosa on the north coast of the Alboran Sea.
- Development of different tools for the monitoring and conservation of marine angiosperm meadows in the Alboran Sea, supported by the creation of a citizen science network and the use of satellite images.
- Determination of the connectivity and genetic diversity of C. nodosa populations along the northern coast of the Alboran Sea.
