Tentative description
This course explores the diversity of life in Namibia’s ocean, from microscopic organisms to large marine mammals. Learners examine food webs, ecosystem dynamics, species adaptations and the unique characteristics of upwelling-driven systems. Coastal, open-ocean and deep-sea ecosystems are used to illustrate how biodiversity supports ecological and economic resilience.
Note: This course is based on the Ocean Literacy Toolkit for Namibia and was developed as part of the NIMPA+ project, which supports marine protection, ocean literacy and sustainable ocean use in Namibia. https://nimpaplus.com
