ICES/NAFO Symposium on the Variability of the North Atlantic and its Marine Ecosystems during 2000�2009

Welcome to the website of ICES/NAFO Symposium Santander 2011.

Flyer Symposium:

CONFERENCE PROGRAMME

Science Programme:

The symposium will run as a single multidisciplinary session organized on regional basis with two sessions devoted to the poster presentations.

Authors preparing talks and posters should read the presentation guidelines .

The Symposium Programme is available in PDF Format. If you want to see.

Now you can see some symposium presentations (format powerpoint)

The science programme will provide excellent opportunities to catch up with the latest observations of variability at all trophic levels; from the ocean climate/physics, through plankton to fish stocks, marine mammals, and seabirds. It will provide new insight into the importance of climate in regulating marine ecosystems of the North Atlantic compared with other drivers of variability.

The keynote talks will introduce each trophic level by describing the long-term and wide-scale patterns of variability and, where appropriate, our current understanding of the key drivers. This can then be used to put the information presented in specific talks into a wider spatial and temporal context.

Associated Events:

A local reception will be hosted by the Mayor of Santander at the Magdalena Palace on the first evening of the symposium.
A conference dinner, to celebrate the work of our Guests of Honour will be held at the 'Silken Rio Santander Hotel' on the second evening.
