Complexity and emergence in marine ecosystems/seascape: theory, mechanisms and data
This course aims to stimulate discussions around the most important theoretical and experimental challenges in the context of open ocean seascape ecology. That is, to introduce the ocean fluid dynamics into current theoretical frameworks (community structure, biogeographies, niche concept, effectiveness of the active tracer response, persistence and fitness, possible functional redundancy, stability of the metabolic machinery with respect to species turnover, etc.) and in the design of new multidisciplinary studies.
