Anton Van de Putte

About me

I’m a marine biologist that obtained a PhD from the KULeuven working on the ecology and evolution of Antarctic fish. As the Antarctic regional node manager of OBIS and GBIF I’m passionate about making Antarctic and Southern Ocean Biodiversity data publicly available. As the belgian scientific representative to CCAMLR I am keen on providing scientific support for ecosystem based management in the Southern Ocean through.
