Climate change, pollution shape Türkiye’s marine agenda for 2026
Climate change, marine pollution, invasive species and the expansion of monitoring systems are set to dominate Türkiye’s marine science agenda in 2026, following a year of intensive research activity across the country’s seas in 2025, scientists and institute heads told Anadolu Agency. Citing MedECC as a key science-policy interface alongside IPCC and IPBES, researchers from TÜDAV, Istanbul University and METU warn that warming seas are rapidly transforming Black Sea and Mediterranean ecosystems ahead of the COP31 climate summit.
