Use and assessment of marine resources

Training delivered by UMR MARBEC at its site in Sète, France. This module develops the current context of fisheries and global climate change on marine ecosystem dynamics. With a view to better understanding and predicting the effects of fishing and climate on marine ecosystems, the teaching module is structured around the identification of uses, assessment methods and modeling of marine resource dynamics.

Synthetic content of the EU:

Resource and fishing interactions. Analysis of marine trophic interactions. Temporal dynamics of exploited fish populations (species alternation, recruitment). Modeling of predator-prey systems. Bioenergetic modeling (DEB model). Analysis and processing of catch and fishing effort data. GLM and GAM data analysis.

- Obtain targeted knowledge on research themes developed in the ecology of exploited marine resources.

- Acquire general, concrete and fundamental skills about the marine and coastal environment.

- Enable students to better understand the environmental, social and economic challenges linked to the preservation, sustainable use and development of living marine resources.
