Descripción
This SponGES policy brief provides a list of ecosystem features of deep-sea sponges covering five different domains: distribution, biodiversity, genetic diversity, nutrient and element fluxes, and response to threats and impacts. It also presents the results of a questionnaire that was administered to sponge experts within the SponGES project, to gain further knowledge and understanding on the overall ecological value of deep-sea sponges and possible consequences of their damage/destruction.
