Our manuscript about modelling challenges for the Ocean Decade is out We invite you to see our latest contribution in Frontiers of Marine Science. Here, we challenge the marine ecosystem modeling community to address how to: (i) enable ocean managers and decision-makers to use their science, (ii) communicate their science, and most importantly (iii) ensure co-design of their science to achieve sustainable development.

Our manuscript about the next major update to EcoOcean, v2, is out now! In this work, we present EcoOcean v2, an updated version of our spatial-temporal ecosystem modelling complex of the global ocean that spans food-web dynamics from primary producers to top predators. We extended the ability of EcoOcean ability to reproduce spatial-temporal ecosystem dynamics by linking species productivity, distributions, and trophic interactions to the impacts of climate change and worldwide fisheries.

*26May2020--The registration for the seminar is now closed. Please be advised that the recorded seminar will be posted to the ecopath website within the next week. Check back here for a direct link. *****************The Ecopath Research and Development Consortium is pleased to announce the start of a new EwE Online Seminar Series. The first seminar will be given by Dr. Natalia Serpetti (Bio below) of the Scottish Association for Marine Science (SAMS) on 26 May2020 at 12:00PM ET/4:00PM GMT. Seminar Title: Title: Modelling small scale impacts of Multi-Purpose Platforms in the West of Scotland ecosystemBio: Dr. Serpetti is interested in understanding the processes that govern the dynamics of marine ecosystems and the forces that regulate and affect it. She does this through modelling approaches that help us understand how different ecosystem levels are interacting. She is also able to simulate and predict future scenarios of how the entire ecosystem might function. Her specific research interests cover a range of the ecosystem levels and focus on how to connect all ecosystem elements using a multi-disciplinary modelling approach. ... See MoreSee Less
