This partnership will combine the technical expertise of both institutions, tying together state-of-the-art research, tools, and in-field harvesting for the transformational use of sargassum – a naturally invasive species impacting coastal industries more and more each year in both countries.

This partnership will combine our technical expertise to tackle sargassum invasion affecting our coastal industries. Coastal managers, for eg, can now utilise MGI’s Jamaica Sargassum Early Advisory System (JSEAS) with SOS Carbon’s Littoral Collection Module (LCM) harvester as transformative solutions to sargassum inundation
