    The Wider Image: In Baltic Sea, citizen divers restore seagrass

    Tadhg O'Corcora , 38, a marine scientist for GEOMAR, collects samples of hand-planted seagrass in Gelting, Northern Germany, June 20, 2023. O'Corcora takes samples to analyse the development of a seagrass meadow a year after planting, for the SeaStore Seagrass Restoration Project at the GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel. "Restoration is returning to something to what it was before. We know that there was seagrass in this places before. Once it was a good habitat for seagrass and once it was lost. We do an assessment of the conditions and try to work out why it was lost." Said O’Corcora. REUTERS/Lisi Niesner
