The ocean and its biodiversity are essential to life on this planet. Comprehensive data on biodiversity, and related human and environmental pressures are crucial to understand its current state and how this may change. Protecting and restoring biodiversity is one of three objectives of the Horizon Europe Mission to restore our oceans and waters by 2030, enabling the EU to reach its Green Deal and Biodiversity 2030 targets. Identified as one of the Mission "enablers", the EU will build on “a digital knowledge system” to include a Digital Twin of the Ocean (DTO) allowing simulation of ‘what if’ scenarios, advancing ocean knowledge, informing evidence-based policy and offering a range of societal applications. To effectively replicate the ocean’s ecology, the DTO requires sustained flows of data on biodiversity and associated pressures. Despite myriad actors collecting biodiversity data, and the development of novel cost-effective monitoring technologies, much of these data are inaccessible or unusable for a variety of reasons, hampering the development of the DTO biological component and limiting its efficacy. DTO-BioFlow will activate access to ("sleeping") marine biodiversity data and enable the sustainable integration of existing and new Artificial Intelligence processed and automated data flows from various sources to EMODnet and into the EDITO infrastructure serving the EU DTO. Combining sustained data flows, models and new algorithms, DTO-BioFlow will develop and integrate the biological component of the DTO, including new digital tools and services. Policy-relevant use cases, will demonstrate the benefit for marine ecosystems of continuous data streams flowing through EMODnet and usable by the EU DTO infrastructures and ultimate end-users. Mobilising the marine biodiversity community towards increasing the availability of biodiversity monitoring data into 2030, DTO-BioFlow and its outputs will support the Mission’s actions to protect and restore biodiversity.

海洋及其生物多样性对地球上的生命至关重要。关于生物多样性以及相关的人类和环境压力的全面数据对于了解其现状以及如何改变至关重要。保护和恢复生物多样性是地平线欧洲使命的三个目标之一，即到2030年恢复我们的海洋和沃茨，使欧盟能够实现其绿色交易和生物多样性2030年目标。作为使命的“推动者”之一，欧盟将建立一个“数字知识系统”，包括一个海洋数字孪生模型（DTO），允许模拟“假设”情景，推进海洋知识，为循证政策提供信息，并提供一系列社会应用。为了有效地复制海洋生态，DTO需要关于生物多样性和相关压力的持续数据流。尽管有无数行为者收集生物多样性数据，并开发了具有成本效益的新监测技术，但由于各种原因，这些数据中有许多无法获得或无法使用，阻碍了DTO生物部分的开发，并限制了其功效。DTO-BioFlow将激活对海洋生物多样性数据的访问（“睡眠”），并将来自各种来源的现有和新的人工智能处理和自动化数据流可持续地整合到EMODnet和为欧盟DTO服务的EDITO基础设施中。结合持续的数据流、模型和新算法，DTO-BioFlow将开发和整合DTO的生物组件，包括新的数字化工具和服务。与政策相关的用例将展示通过EMODnet流动的连续数据流对海洋生态系统的好处，并可供欧盟DTO基础设施和最终用户使用。为了动员海洋生物多样性社区在2030年之前增加生物多样性监测数据的可用性，DTO-BioFlow及其产出将支持使命保护和恢复生物多样性的行动。
