Report on the third workshop of the Network of Experts for ReDeveloping Models of the European Marine Environment
The third workshop of the ‘Network of Experts for ReDeveloping Models of the European Marine Environment’ was held on 20-21 March 2018 in Brussels, Belgium, jointly organized by DG Environment and DG JRC (Water and Marine Resources Unit) within the framework of the Administrative Arrangements (N110661/ENV.C.2/2016/733192 and N070201/2017/765512/SER/ENV.C.2 34450.JRC) and the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MFSD). The aim of this workshop was to continue the information exchange between the Commission and marine modelling experts with a particular focus this year on high trophic levels modelling. Contributions addressed innovative modelling approaches in coastal zones and European regional seas using ecosystem/food web modelling for assessment, indicator development and scenario building in support of MSFD implementation. One aim of the workshop was to learn about existing work and to draw lessons for the build-up of the European modelling effort. Another important objective of this initiative was to narrow the gap between modellers and decision makers in order to better exploit the full utility of models. Researchers from around the EU and the world provided a total of 17 presentations. This report summarizes the workshop and provides further detail on the presentations, discussion and conclusions.
