Description
Summary:Ocean circulation plays a fundamental role in governing marine resources. It exhibits cycles that last decades and is likely to be strongly influenced by climate change. This policy brief outlines new knowledge gained as part of the ATLAS and iAtlantic projects on the changing Atlantic Ocean circulation and its impacts on marine natural capital. It highlights the need for sustained in-situ observing and enhanced biological understanding to improve future forecasts of ecosystem response. : These projects have received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme, under grant agreement No 678760 (ATLAS) and 818123 (iAtlantic).
