Floristic Survey on Seaweed at Cape Kattoshi and SDGs

By regularly monitoring the species composition of seaweeds growing for a long period of time, changes in the environment can be predicted. There are approximately 1,800 species of seaweeds in Japan, but only a few dozen of them is currently being used. Investigating seaweed vegetation may lead to the development of unused resources. We would like to contribute to the SDGs by protecting the richness of the oceans and enabling a sustainable food supply.
