AMARE-MED 2024 – Advanced school on Multispecies modelling Approaches for ecosystem based marine REsource management in the MEDiterranean Sea

28/07/2024

The AMARE-MED (Advanced school on Multispecies modelling Approaches for ecosystem based marine REsource management in the MEDiterranean Sea) is organized annually and is promoted by the Dynamics of Ecosystems and Computational Oceanography ECHO group of OGS: Capogranitola 2017; Trieste 2018; Venice 2019; Split 2021; Larnaca 2022.

This year, the school will take place between 28th July and 3rd August and it will focus on modelling trawl survey data using traditional and geostatistical methods and their use in multispecies models for fisheries management. The full week will be dedicated to i) basic analysis of trawl survey data, ii) application of geostatistical models implemented using sdmTMB, including environmental covariates, iii) prediction of species spatio-temporal distributions under climate change and species overlap, iv) use of the results in Models of Intermediate Complexity (MICE) for evaluation of projections and trade-off analysis. The course will mix lectures and programming.
