El próximo 4 de MARZO a las 15H00 retomamos el ciclo de seminarios conjuntos con el CEAB, ICM, ICMAN e IIM que llevan por título "Seamposium: Dealing with new frontiers of marine research", esta vez organizado conjuntamente como IMEDEA New Frontiers webinar's series.
TÍTULO: To drown or not to drown? On the role of ecology in flood defense
PONENTE: Prof. Tjeerd J. Bouma, NIOZ - Estuarine & Delta Systems
RESUMEN: Marine ecosystem engineers are species that alter their environment and therefore interact with the forces originating from tidal currents and waves. Biophysical interactions by ecosystem engineers (e.g. vegetation like salt marshes, mangroves, seagrass, aquatic water plants, reef forming animals like oysters and mussels, and bioturbating animals living in the sea floor) can have major consequences for the functioning and development of estuarine and marine systems. Tjeerd Bouma is interested in obtaining a better understanding of ecosystem engineering as a strategy (fundamental ecology), the thresholds ecosystem engineers encounter for establishment to overcome bottle necks in ecosystem restoration, and the influence ecosystem engineers have on ecosystem functioning by altering resource fluxes, biodiversity, ecosystem resilience and landscape evolution, with management implications and specifically the opportunities this offers for the benefit of humanity generating ecosystem services like e.g. Nature Based Flood Defenses.
