Fujairah, United Arab Emirates: The Fujairah Environment Authority selected two renowned researchers to conduct the first such study to assess the fish resources in Fujairah’s deep waters. Environmental Science Researcher at Fujairah Research Center. Both researchers use the ocean research vessel “Jeun”; It is the most advanced ship in the entire Middle East and is operated by the Environment Agency in Abu Dhabi. It took the two researchers two full weeks to study the marine environment with extremely important and sensitive data on fish resources in the Emirate of Fujairah.

Jiewon has the latest technologies and innovative equipment in the industry, including: six in-house sampling laboratories, acoustic fish detection technology, underwater cameras and sensors, computer-aided data analysis and next-generation genetic analysis technologies. All these advanced features and characteristics enabled the two researchers “Maryam” and “Sabha” to collect data with the highest accuracy and unparalleled sensitivity, which ultimately resulted in success in developing a comprehensive understanding of the nature and status of fish resources. In Fujairah area and other important factors. The two young researchers expressed how happy they were to take advantage of this golden opportunity to carry out their research with the highly developed ship “Zeon” as their use of the ship contributed to strengthen their efforts to conduct the study and also gave them a deeper understanding. Assessment of Marine Biodiversity in Fujairah Region.

One of the most important goals of the survey conducted by the scientists of the “Fujairah Research Center” is to deepen the knowledge of fish species, their distribution patterns and their abundance in the waters of Fujairah, their species, sizes and ages. Using acoustic data and environmental DNA analysis collected for the first time in the Fujairah region, research efforts were able to identify existing fish species, invasive and endangered species, and comprehensive genome sequencing. On board the marine research vessel “Jeun”.

Researcher Maryam Al-Hafiti expressed her gratitude for this useful scientific experience: “We are honored to have this unique opportunity to conduct the first survey to assess fish resources in the Fujairah region. Honorable Ms. Asila Al-Mulla, Director of Fujairah Environment Authority and Dr. / Fuad Lamqari, Director of Fujairah Research Center. We are extremely grateful for our contribution to understanding the nature of marine life in the waters of Fujairah and helping to protect it.

Researcher Suba Al-Hamoudi added in his colleague’s speech, “The data we collected during this research will play an important role in defining strategies for managing and rearing marine species, as well as improving efforts to conserve fish resources in Fujairah. . . The waters of this region are of great importance to the ecosystem.” It is vital to the life of the surrounding communities. We are grateful that we have the opportunity to contribute to its preservation.”

This scientific work aims to collect valuable data that will contribute to an accurate and detailed understanding of the ecosystem of marine life, especially the fish species that live in the area. Mariam and Suba emphasized the importance of this information and its role in contributing to taking necessary actions, improving environmental conservation measures to ensure the sustainability of fish stocks, and developing more effective management strategies in the future.

The survey lasted for two weeks in the waters off Fujairah, and resulted in critical and important results in reshaping marine life strategies and efforts to conserve and develop fisheries in the region. These resources represent enormous ecological value to the surrounding communities and play an important role in protecting their lifestyles and providing the necessities of life.
