ERSEM (European Regional Seas Ecosystem Model)


Active project

Project Start: January 2016 | Project End: February 2032
Project Funder: NERC
Principal Investigator: Jerry Blackford
Other Participants: Dr Yuri Artioli, Dr James Clark, Dr Gennadi Lessin, Dr Helen Powley

An ecosystem model is an abstract, usually mathematical, representation of an ecological system, which is studied to gain understanding of the real system. ERSEM addresses biogeochemical and ecological systems in many applications in global regional seas and more recently the global ocean, engaging in a range of problem solving, predictive and impact studies.
