SturNet

Network for the Preservation of Sturgeon and for the Sustainability of the Black Sea Basin Ecosystem

Sturgeons are valuable wildlife resources and a significant source of income and employment in the Black Sea Basin. However, threats such as water pollution, habitat destruction, illegal harvest, and trade threaten their survival. The number of sturgeons in major basins has declined by 70% over the last century, particularly in the Danube River and its Delta. The project aims to address these issues by developing a free digital mapping tool that provides insight into sturgeon behaviour and migration routes.
