MARCO-BOLO (MBO) aims to structure and strengthen European coastal and marine biodiversity observation capabilities, linking them to global efforts to understand and restore ocean health, hence ensuring that outputs respond to explicit stakeholder needs from policy, planning and industry. To this end MBO will establish and engage with a Community of Practice (CoP) to determine end-user needs with the aim of optimising marine data flows, knowledge uptake, and improving governance based on biodiversity observations. By exploiting synergies with concurrent projects MBO will develop and demonstrate new autonomous technology for biodiversity mapping and monitoring, and data streams from remote sensing, eDNA, robotics, optical and acoustic observations. Protocols for eDNA-based biodiversity observations are established and validated across applications, taxa and ecosystems. The sequence of the analytical and technical processes for the different use cases will be incorporated into operational Essential Ocean Variables (EOVs) and Essential Biodiversity Variables (EBVs) and included into online reusable workflows, contributing to the free and open access of EU and global biodiversity information facilities, and to support major EU biodiversity directives and global initiatives. The project partnership will leverage its international activities (MBON, GOOS, OBIS) and participation in UN Ocean Decade Programmes (Marine Life 2030, OBON, ODIS, Ocean Practices for the Decade) to align the MBO work programme to global CoP, ensuring European participation and leadership in global biodiversity monitoring and global science. MBO results will be designed to build upon existing capability and infrastructures, and to be relevant to existing frameworks so that outputs can be easily integrated into national, regional (EU and adjacent sea basins), and global observation systems, with no delay ensuring the reusability of the investments Europe is already making in data generation.

MARCO-BOLO (MBO) 旨在构建和加强欧洲沿海和海洋生物多样性观测能力，将其与全球了解和恢复海洋健康的努力联系起来，从而确保产出满足利益相关者来自政策、规划和行业的明确需求。为此，MBO 将建立并参与实践社区 (CoP)，以确定最终用户的需求，旨在优化海洋数据流、知识吸收并改善基于生物多样性观测的治理。通过利用与并行项目的协同效应，MBO 将开发并展示用于生物多样性测绘和监测的新自主技术，以及来自遥感、eDNA、机器人、光学和声学观测的数据流。基于 eDNA 的生物多样性观测协议在应用、类群和生态系统中建立和验证。不同用例的分析和技术流程的顺序将被纳入可操作的基本海洋变量（EOV）和基本生物多样性变量（EBV）中，并纳入在线可重复使用的工作流程中，有助于欧盟和全球生物多样性信息设施的自由和开放访问，并支持主要的欧盟生物多样性指令和全球倡议。该项目伙伴关系将利用其国际活动（MBON、GOOS、OBIS）和参与联合国海洋十年计划（海洋生物2030、OBON、ODIS、十年海洋实践），使MBO工作计划与全球CoP保持一致，确保欧洲在全球生物多样性监测和全球科学方面的参与和领导。 MBO结果将旨在建立在现有能力和基础设施的基础上，并与现有框架相关，以便产出可以轻松整合到国家、区域（欧盟和邻近海盆）和全球观测系统中，毫不拖延地确保欧洲已经在数据生成方面进行的投资的可重用性。
