1. Barents Sea Ecosystem Resilience under global environmental change 2010-2013 Annual Meeting – December 2012 - Paris

2. BarEcoRe Annual Meeting – 4-7 December 2012 - Paris Bar-EcoRe: main objective evaluate the effects of global environmental change on the future structure and resilience of the Barents Sea ecosystem

3. BarEcoRe Annual Meeting – 4-7 December 2012 - Paris Bar-EcoRe: main objective evaluate the effects of global environmental change on the future structure and resilience of the Barents Sea ecosystem quantitative data analysis and modelling climate and fishing- induced species comp, spatial structure, trophic network ability to absorb disturbance and maintain function fish and benthos communities

4. BarEcoRe Annual Meeting – 4-7 December 2012 - Paris Bar-EcoRe: more specific questions What are the key characteristics of past temporal and spatial variations in fish and benthos communities and how are these related to past climate variability and fishing pressure? How does climate variability and change propagate through the Barents Sea ecosystem and influences species interactions? How can the combined effects of fisheries and climate modify the spatial distribution of plankton, benthos and fish species in the Barents Sea? What determines vulnerability or resilience of the Barents Sea ecosystem and how will these be affected by possible future changes in climate and fisheries regimes? Can we detect early warning signals and can we evaluate management strategies with regards to ecosystem resilience?
