Abstract
The PELASeam survey is a multidisciplinary expedition conducted aboard the R/V Gaia Blu from July 23 to August 8, 2024 designed to explore the pelagic ecosystem of 2 seamounts in the Tyrrhenian Sea (Vavilov and Vercelli) with different topographic and environmental characteristics. The main goal was to investigate and assess the pelagic productivity, biodiversity, and ecological roles of these important ecosystems using various and innovative methods including net sampling, eDNA, visual, and acoustic observations. The results of this survey will help to better understand the unique features and potential ecological significance of the seamounts, providing valuable insights into their role in supporting marine life and contributing to the overall health of the marine ecosystem in the Tyrrhenian Sea.
