The Joint Call on Consequences of Changing Marine Lightscapes is now officially open, aiming to address critical gaps in our understanding of the drivers and ecological impacts of changing marine lightscapes resulting from both Coastal Darkening and Artificial Light at Night.

This initiative, supported by seven Funding Partners, including the Malta Council for Science and Technology, will provide funding to R&I projects focusing on the following key areas:

• Observing changes in marine lightscapes
• Causes of change in marine lightscapes
• Consequences of changing marine lightscapes
• Managing impacts of changing marine lightscapes

Entities based in Malta are eligible to request up to € 200,000 in funding so that together with their consortium they can submit a proposal (N.B. if more than one National partner is present in one consortium, the total amount of funding for the participating National partners cannot exceed the € 200,000 capping).
