PICES 12th Annual Meeting

 

Scientific Program
The Keynote Lecture at the Opening Session will be given by Prof. Suam Kim (Department of Marine Biology, Pukyong National University, Busan), on "Application of otolith chemistry to interpret some issues on oceanic variability and fisheries".

S1: Science Board Symposium (0.75 day)
Human dimensions of ecosystem variability

Co-Convenors: R. Ian Perry (SB), Vladimir I. Radchenko (BIO), Yukimasa Ishida (FIS), John E. Stein (MEQ), Kuh Kim (POC), Igor I. Shevchenko (TCODE), and Harold P. Batchelder & Makoto Kashiwai (CCCC).

S2: POC/BIO Topic Session (1 day)
Physical and biological responses of coastal ocean ecosystems and estuaries to inputs of freshwater

Co-Convenors: Michael J. Dagg (U.S.A.) & Yury I. Zuenko (Russia).

S3: REX Topic Session (1/2 day)
Influence of fishing and/or invasive species on ecosystem structure in coastal regions around the Pacific Rim

Co-Convenors: William T. Peterson (U.S.A.) & Yoshiro Watanabe (Japan).

S4: MEQ/BIO Topic Session (1 day)
Aquaculture in the ocean ecosystem

Co-convenors: Ik-Kyo Chung, In-Kwon Jang (Korea), Julia K. Parrish & John E. Stein (U.S.A.).

S5: MODEL Session (1/2 day)
Comparison of modeling approaches to describe ecological food webs, marine ecosystem processes, and ecosystem response to climate variability

Co-Convenors: Michio J. Kishi (Japan), Bernard A. Megrey & Francisco E. Werner (U.S.A.).

S6: BIO/POC/CCCC Topic Session (1 day)
Latitudinal differences in the responses of productivity and recruitment of marine organisms to physical variability

Co-Convenors: Steven J. Bograd (U.S.A.), David L. Mackas (Canada) & Yoshiro Watanabe (Japan).

A scientific result of the PICES Symposium on 'North Pacific Transitional Areas' (La Paz, Mexico, 2002) was the identification of distinct latitudinal differences in ecosystem structure and variability, including the distribution and productivity of plankton and the recruitment of fish stocks. This session will further explore latitudinal clines in life history strategies at various scales of temporal variability in the eastern Pacific from Mexico to Alaska, and in the western Pacific from China to Russia. Presentations on the scales and mechanisms of physical variability in these regions, and on clines in the distribution and productivity of plankton, fish, birds, mammals and intertidal invertebrates, are encouraged.

S7: FIS Topic Session (1/2 day)
The role of sharks in marine ecosystems of the North Pacific Ocean

Co-Convenor: Vincent Gallucci, Gordon H. Kruse (U.S.A.) & Hideki Nakano (Japan).

S8: FIS Topic Session (1/2 day)
Management of eel resources

Co-Convenors: Tae-Won Lee (Korea) & Katsumi Tsukamoto (Japan).

S9: TCODE Electronic Poster Session
GIS/Geographic-based applications to marine systems

Co-Convenors: Sung-Dae Kim (Korea) & Bernard A. Megrey (U.S.A.).

S10: MEQ/BIO/FIS Topic Session
Ecosystem-based management science and its application to the North Pacific
