Complexity is inherent to biological systems and embedded
at all levels of organization in marine ecosystems. In this
keynote I will provide an overview of Parsimonious Rules
capturing essential features of complexity across a range
of Marine Ecosystems. I will summarize insights into the
structure of networks in marine ecosystems, and how they
can be used to examine properties and stability of metapopulations
and food webs, scaling laws capturing quasi-universal
patterns of organization and dynamics in marine
ecosystems, and complex patterns emerging from simple
rules that govern landscape formation and dynamics across
marine ecosystems. This keynote summarizes two decades
of cross-disciplinary collaboration between marine ecologists
and scientists focused on complex systems at IFISC,
and will provide some reflections on the keys to successful
collaboration toward advancing our understanding of marine
ecosystems.
