2025 PICES Annual Meeting
Ecosystems in the North Pacific have been significantly impacted by climate change and human activities. For over 30 years, PICES has established an international scientific network and conducted numerous projects to enhance our understanding of how North Pacific ecosystems respond to such impacts. However, with the recent intensification of climate change and the increase in unpredictable extreme events, previously held understandings may no longer be valid. There is a pressing need for discussions on integrating the latest scientific findings and technologies (e.g., artificial intelligence, remote sensing, biotechnology) by experts from diverse fields, including marine science, environmental conservation, engineering, economics, and social science. Equally important is the collaboration with local fishing communities, policymakers, NGOs, and other stakeholders to explore practical applications of scientific knowledge. PICES-2025 will serve as a crucial platform for exploring innovative approaches to understanding North Pacific ecosystems, helping to chart a path toward climate resilience and sustainable development. Contributions from experienced specialists, as well as groundbreaking ideas from Early and mid-Career Ocean Professionals, are highly encouraged.
This webinar series is jointly hosted by the UN Ocean Decade Programs Blue Food Futures, Fisheries Strategies for Changing Oceans and Resilient Ecosystems (FishSCORE), Sustainability, Predictability, and Resilience of Marine Ecosystems (SUPREME), Sustainability of Marine Ecosystems through Global Knowledge Networks (SmartNet), and Fisheries and Marine Ecosystem Model Intercomparison Project (FishMIP) and endorsed project Basin Scale Events to Coastal Impacts (BECI). This webinar series highlights current efforts and challenges at the climate-fisheries nexus. Presentations and discussions will range from data-driven efforts to better understand oceanographic and biological changes affecting fisheries, to how the results can be used to inform fisheries management, aquaculture, and sustainable food decisions, to the many ways people and broader communities are being impacted by and adapting to changes in marine ecosystems and marine resource use.
This webinar series occurs monthly. Please visit the FishSCORE website for more information and to register for upcoming webinars.
