This report is the 7th deliverable in WP4 and studies the performance of Ecopath with Ecosim (EwE) and Gadget in data-poor cases. The Atlantis model that was constructed for Icelandic waters was used as an operating model and data simulated from the model for data-poor scenarios. The simulated data was fed into EwE and Gadget
This report, deliverable 4.6 (D4.6), is a deliverable of Work Package 4 (WP4 – Ecosystem models and assessment models) of the FP7 MareFrame research project. The aim of the MareFrame project is to identify management strategies which will achieve Good Environmental Status (GES) by applying a minimum of two ecosystem models on each of eight
This report is a deliverable of work package 4 (WP4 – Ecosystem models and assessment models) of the FP7 MareFrame research project. The aim of the MareFrame project is to identify management strategies which will encompass the ecosystem approach to fisheries management. The generic strategy for the project is to apply a minimum of two
This report is the 4th deliverable in WP4 and studies the performance of two models commonly used in this WP, Ecopath with Ecosim (EwE) and Gadget. An Atlantis model was constructed for Icelandic waters and used as an operating model, i.e. simulated data from Atlantis was fed into EwE and Gadget. Thus, Atlantis was considered
The debate on the Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries Management (EAFM) has shifted from definition of the concept towards implementation. In the European Union (EU) challenges and barriers coming from the scientific knowledge base and the institutional framework have been analysed elsewhere. However, in the current playing field other challenges have gone unnoticed. These relate to
This report is a deliverable of work package 4 (WP4 – Ecosystem models and assessment models) of the FP7 MareFrame research project. One of the aims of the MareFrame project is to identify management strategies which will achieve Good Environmental Status (GES) by applying a minimum of two ecosystem models on each of eight different
Work package 2 (WP2) aimed to identify, collect, and evaluate information not usually considered for assessment and management. Deliverable 2.4 (D2.4) contains a list of protocols that describe the final implementation of the novel data into models within each case study (CS). Each of these protocols is written in a similar way as a "Material
2016 was a good year for MareFrame. Project members were asked to deliver ecosystem approach to fisheries management message to wide range of audience all over the world. 2017 is the final year of MareFrame and our deliverables are piling up with great results. More on our deliverable in the new year! :) Until then,
MareFrame third annual meeting will take place in Palermo on the beautiful island of Sicily December 14th-15th. The main objective of MareFrame is to significantly increase the use of the ecosystem-based approach to fisheries management (EAFM) when providing advice relating to the management of European fish stocks. This will be achieved through the development of
