Three main challenges and priority areas:

Understanding marine ecosystems for healthy oceans under global / climate change

Building scenarios for marine socio-ecological systems under changing oceans

Marine science as a provider of new concepts for innovation and technology

Annual competitive calls for proposals encompassing: Foresight Workshops, Working Groups, Service Workshops, and

Capacity Building and Training Courses


Emerging and transdisciplinary fields

Intra- and inter-generational evolution and forecasting of living marine

resources

Complex interactions including tipping

points, regime shifts and shifting

assemblages in marine ecosystems

Effects of global warming, ocean acidification, sea

level rise and hypoxia

on biodiversity and ecosystem

function

Marine rhythms of life and

their alterations

Valuation of goods and services

delivered by marine ecosystems

Restoration and

conservation of sustainable

marine ecosystems

Hot topics such as oceanography, high resolution polar oceans and biogeochemistry
