Our friends in the ClimeFish project opened a very nice home page today. This interesting project will investigate the effects of climate change on fisheries and aquaculture at European and regional scale among other things and Co-create a decision support framework to ensure sustainable fish production in Europe under climate change. The results from the MareFrame
Abstract Understanding the mechanisms responsible for stability and persistence of ecosystems is one of the greatest challenges in ecology. Robert May showed that, contrary to intuition, complex randomly built ecosystems are less likely to be stable than simpler ones. Few attempts have been tried to test May's prediction empirically, and we still ignore what is
A dietary study was conducted to investigate the effect of partly substituted levels of fish meal with plant proteins in feed for juvenile (140- 500 g) turbot (Scophthalmus maximus Rafinesque) on growth performance. The results can be found in the article, "Effect of Fish Protein Replacement in Diets for Juvenile Turbot" in the Turkish Journal

Abstract The aim of this work is to measure the development of the concentration of quota holdings by harvesting companies and harbours in Iceland. For the period 1990–2014, the analysis traces the development of relative quota holdings of the biggest actors operating large vessels as well as firms that employ smaller boats that are only
Today we will stick a paper fish to your back – but tomorrow we start investigating the impact of climate change on European fisheries and aquaculture The French term “Poisson d'Avril” ('April fish' or an ‘April Fool') was established in the 16th Century when the king moved the start of the year from the end
The MareFrame Press Office was set-up as an independent section on the MareFrame website and designed as a hub where information of the project progress is constantly posted. It is divided into three main sections: “Press Release”, “MareFrame in Media” and “Communication Materials”. The Press Office enables spreading information to a wider array of audiences
The aim of the dissemination in the MareFrame project is to make the project results well-known in Europe and to disseminate the results to all potential stakeholders, i.e. SMEs, consumers, retailers, consumer organizations, solution providers and control authorities. In addition, MareFrame will disseminate the results to other on-going projects and initiatives relevant for the project
Posters and leaflets are tools MareFrame uses to present the project and promote its message to a target audience. The MareFrame information poster and leaflet were designed to disseminate project information. The materials were designed as simple tools to disseminate the project to a wide array of target audiences, complying with the FP7 visibility rules.
