6 th Green Ocean Workshop Villefranche sur mer Spring 2007

Questions: what are the important feedbacks between marine ecosystems and climate on timescales of 1 yr to 100 kyr? are marine ecosystems stable? are there sensitive regions that we should closely monitor or potentially dangerous climate regimes or human activities that we should carefully avoid?

Products of 2006 workshop: EOS workshop report on Modelling interactions between marine ecosystems and climate Definition of 2 priorities: (1) develop a scheme for model evaluation (2) gather observations on rates and biomass

2007 workshop: 40 participants (18 new, 22 returning) 7 phd students

Products of 2007 workshop: review progress and revise priorities define steps to move forward on priorities (1)develop a scheme for model evaluation AMERM effort (led by Icarus Alan) model intercomparison with Yasuhiro Yamanaka + (2) gather observations on rates and biomass remineralizers effort (led by Erik Buitenhuis) primary producers effort (led by Shubha Sathyendranath) explore non-linearities in marine ecosystems (led by Dieter Wolf-Gladrow)
