Welcome to the Life Below Water Conference 2023
A partnered initiative with Oceans and Environment and the Water Quality and Health Network
There is a continuous deterioration of coastal waters owing to pollution, and ocean acidification is having an adversarial effect on the functioning of ecosystems and biodiversity.
The ocean makes up 71% of the planet and provides many services to human communities from mitigating weather extremes to generating the oxygen we breathe, from producing the food we eat to storing the excess carbon dioxide we generate. Rainwater, drinking water, climate, weather, and oxygen are all provided and regulated by the sea
Climate change impacts of increasing greenhouse gas emissions threaten coastal and marine ecosystems through changes in ocean temperature and melting of ice, which in turn affect ocean currents, weather patterns, and sea level.
The meeting of Life below Water conferences addresses current challenges and brings together all disciplines who share the same vision and values for their sector, including Hydrologists, Technical Managers, Environmental Consultants, Marine, and Ocean Scientists, Water Engineers, Waste Managers, Service providers, Marine & Ocean Engineers,Water Auditors, Urban Water Managers, Researchers, and Councils.
