Marine Conservation for the Dive Professional
Having developed your dive experience already our aim will be to develop your knowledge of marine conservation.
This one-month in depth progam will provide you with detailed knowledge of tropical reef ecosystems. We'll first take a look at the marine ecosystem followed by exploring many of the problems this important global resource faces. Finally we'll develop a thorough understanding of some of the solutions available to everyone - from individual roles to resource management issues. Throughout this process we'll trial many different reef restoration techniques including artificial reefs, coral nurseries and biorock. We'll also explore a number of different survey methods and techniques to track and monitor changes.
Finally we'll put all of your learning into practice through our eco-diving internship. For that two-weeks you'll have access to equipment and facilities to assist our 'eco' team to preserve the beautiful island paradise of Koh Tao. |
