Climate Variability and Sub-Arctic Marine Ecosystems
ESSAS logo

Abstract submission

Papers were invited for the symposium on the following topics:

  • large-scale climate forcing on the physical oceanography of Sub-Arctic seas
  • physical and biological factors structuring Sub-Arctic ecosystems (e.g., nutrient availability, sea ice, low temperatures, low species diversity, etc.)
  • the transfer of energy and material through sub-arctic food webs, from primary producers through zooplankton and benthic fauna to fish, seabirds, marine mammals and fisheries
  • recent changes in sub-arctic ecosystems, time-scales of variation and possible causes
  • inter-comparisons between Sub-Arctic marine ecosystems
