The fourth summer school in IMBER´s ClimEco (Climate and Marine Ecosystems) series will be held at the East China Normal University in Shanghai, China from 4-9 August 2014.

The theme is Delineating the issues of climate change and impacts to marine ecosystems: Bridging the gap between research, assessment, policy and management.

The focus will be on indicators for evaluating marine ecosystems, including what they are, how to select them (for process/observation scientists), how they are used (for modellers from natural and social sciences), and combined to inform policy and decision-making.

Numbers are limited to 60 participants to ensure optimal participant-lecturer interactions, interactive practical sessions and group projects. Bring your own data for the daily “hands-on” sessions.
