What We Do

Blue Maritimes develops applied scientific research and collaborative initiatives that strengthen the protection and climate resilience of coastal and wetland ecosystems in Atlantic Canada

Coastal Climate Research

We generate high-quality scientific data on blue carbon, saltmarsh dynamics, and coastal ecosystem processes to support evidence-based climate strategies.

Restoration and Nature-Based Solutions

We contribute to the design and evaluation of ecosystem restoration and conservation actions that enhance coastal resilience and biodiversity.

Policy and Community Engagement

We work with coastal communities, public institutions, and conservation partners to translate scientific knowledge into practical decision-making and long-term environmental stewardship.

“Restoring blue carbon ecosystems can help offset current global emissions while delivering important ecological and social co-benefits.”
