Científicos proponen la zona marítima del Delta del Ebro como área de restricción pesquera por su riqueza ecológica. Un reciente trabajo científico, desarrollado por ONG y el CSIC en colaboración con pescadores locales, ha detectado la riqueza ecológica del área marítima del Delta del Ebro y proponen que esta se declare como zona de restricción […]
Under our Spanish Project ProOceans “Fostering the capacity of marine ecosystem models to PROject the cumulative effects of global change and plausible future OCEANS” we have organized a 2-day workshop to discuss modelling techniques available, their capabilities and challenges to model the global ocean. We have discussed about marine ecosystem models, spatial statistical models, Bayesian/Frequentist […]
We organized a joint lab meeting with Villy Christensen group at University of British Columbia, Institute for the Oceans and Fisheries. We discussed students and postdoc projects and found common challenges and issues to deal with ecological modelling techniques. A very inspiring session! Let’s hope that next time it can be an “in person” meeting.
Our recent publication about plasticizes detected in Mediterranean sardines, anchovies and hake has been featured in National Geographic.
Our Spanish project ProOceans “Fostering the capacity of marine ecosystem models to PROject the cumulative effects of global change and plausible future OCEANS” starts with a kickoff meeting with all partners. We have three very interesting years ahead of us to learn about MEMs, statistical models and how to improve our capacity to project changes […]
We presented the results of 4 years of projects on small pelagic fish at the first SIMERPE – Iberian Symposium on Modeling and Assessment of Fishery Resources (“Simposio Ibérico de Modelado y Evaluación de Recursos Pesqueros”) We are very grateful for this opportunity, full of interesting discussions about achievements and challenges to evaluate marine resources […]
Our projects about small pelagic fish have produced very interesting results during the last 4 years. We have summarized them in three infographics (made by Amparo Hidalgo): You can download them from here We presented them last week at the University of Girona during a very informative workshop organized by Jordi Viñas and Marta Muñoz […]
The project is entitled “Fostering the capacity of marine ecosystem models to project the cumulative effects of global change and plausible future oceans” (PI: Marta Coll ICM-CSIC, Barcelona, Jose Mª Bellido IEO-Murcia & Xavier Barber UMH, Elche). The PhD fellow will receive a 4-year contract with a gross annual salary of 16,250€ for each of […]

Today our PELWEB project formally arrives to an end. The amazing team of PELWEB was worked a lot during three years and a half to advance on our understanding of the Mediterranean pelagic ecosystem and, particularly, on anchovy and sardine dynamics. We just published an outreach text about important outcomes in The Conversation, check it […]
