Studying marine ecology is a fantastic way to get closer to\u2014and gain a better understanding of\u2014the environment where we conduct our dives.<\/p>\n

Marine ecology is a discipline within biology or environmental science that explores how organisms interact with one another and with the marine environment. During the course, you will learn\u2014in an accessible and comprehensive way\u2014how marine food webs function, how the distribution of organisms is influenced by factors like temperature and light, the basics of oceanography, how humans affect the sea (including the impacts we have on its vital cycles), and the efforts being made to conserve and protect the marine environment.<\/p>\n

As with all courses from our certifying agency, SSI<\/a>, the theoretical material is available online\u2014accessible from anywhere in the world, at your own pace, and in the language of your choice. This training is complemented by two theory sessions focused on the marine ecology of the Mediterranean Sea\u2014because understanding our local environment encourages the behavioral changes needed to conserve it\u2014which will be held via the Zoom platform.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

Practical training will be provided by our biologist, Aurora Requena<\/strong>, one of the founders of the dive center.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Marine ecology is a broad and exciting field of study that captures our attention and curiosity. This course provides a general understanding of all the topics within this field.<\/p>\n

The course consists of 4 hours of in-person theory, an online theory component, and one dive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2389,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[235,237],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-3283","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-for-the-public","product_cat-ssi-course","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/plancton.cat\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/3283","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/plancton.cat\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/plancton.cat\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plancton.cat\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3283"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plancton.cat\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2389"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/plancton.cat\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3283"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plancton.cat\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=3283"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plancton.cat\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=3283"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plancton.cat\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=3283"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
