EUR-OCEANS EUROPEAN NETWORK OF EXCELLENCE FOR OCEAN ECOSYSTEMS ANALYSIS.

P.I.: Emilio Hernández-García
Partners: 65 partners de distintas instituciones europeas. El CSIC es una de las Instituciones, coordinada pro Carlos Duarte
Start date: Jan. 1, 2005
End date: Dec. 31, 2008

The overall networking objective of EUR-OCEANS is to achieve lasting integration of European research organisations on global change and pelagic marine ecosystems and the relevant scientific disciplines. This will put Europe in an international leadership position in this field.

The overall scientific objective of EUR-OCEANS is to develop models for assessing and forecasting the impacts of climate and anthropogenic forcing on food-web dynamics (structure, functioning, diversity and stability) of pelagic ecosystems in the open ocean. To reach this goal, EUR-OCEANS will favour the progressive integration of research programmes and facilities of major research institutes in Europe.
