🌊 The crucial role of Marine Ecosystem Modelling 💻 At CLS, our team of expert marine and fisheries scientists is dedicated to the field of marine ecosystem modelling, a vital tool for understanding and forecasting the future states of our oceans. For nearly 20 years, our commitment to this domain has driven advancements in sustainable fishing practices and marine conservation, especially through the development of the #SEAPODYM model. 🐟 SEAPODYM (Spatial Ecosystem And Population Dynamics Model) plays a central role in our research, computing the spatial evolution of biomass densities. It integrates a system of advection-diffusion-reaction equations influenced by ocean currents, temperature, and net primary productivity—essential factors that govern the transport, development, and biomass sources of marine organisms. 💡 We are thrilled to share that our fisheries scientists, Olivier Titaud and Héloïse MAGLIANO, recently participated in the Advances in Marine Ecosystem Modelling Research (AMEMR) conference in Plymouth, UK, from July 8-11. This prestigious event gathers leading minds to promote interdisciplinary discussions among stakeholders, modellers, and scientists dedicated to advancing marine ecosystem models. At AMEMR, our team presented two significant research projects that highlight our continuous efforts to enhance marine ecosystem understanding: 📌 Dynamics of #Zooplankton and #Micronecton Populations: This study uses a spatial ecosystem model based on the innovative Yin-Yang grid, offering new insights into the population dynamics of key marine species. 📌 1D Coupling of SEAPODYM-LMTL and PISCES: This project explores the application of these coupled models in homogeneous biophysical provinces, advancing our ability to simulate and understand complex marine ecosystems. We are excited by the progress shared at AMEMR and remain committed to pioneering research that supports sustainable marine ecosystems.
