Ecological Counseling Center Cahul, announces the competition through a request for offers for the selection of an Expert Information Technology (IT), an activity within the project " Carbon Binding Blue Black Sea”.
Project description:
Seagrass meadows are part of the coastal "blue carbon" ecosystems that serve as a sink for organic carbon, sequestering it in their biomass and sediments. However, they have been in decline at a global scale throughout the 20 century and at increasing rates since the 1990s due to coastal development, water quality deterioration and eutrophication, as well as climate change. They are exposed to direct physical effect by illegal trawling, and indirectly by the sedimentation resulting from harbour and breakwater construction, boat anchorage or soil erosion. Furthermore, potential effects of the global climate change such as sea water temperature increases, carbon dioxide level increases, reduction of pH levels and acidification, impacts the photosynthesis of meadows, hence affects reproduction and development.
General objective:
The vegetated habitats such as seagrasses of seas form earth’s blue carbon sinks and account for more than 50% of all carbon storage in ocean sediments. This action aims at preservation of seagrasses via blue carbon management tools to ensure that they are protected, their degradation is prevented, and they are allowed to be maintained in a satisfactory state of conservation, in line with the Strategic Action Plan for the Environmental Protection and Rehabilitation of the Black Sea..
Period for performing the services: 16 months, starting of November 2025.
