The Swedish Society for Marine Sciences welcomes everyone engaged and interested in marine sciences, management and environmental monitoring to this conference on the SEA! The meeting focuses on current aspects of research, management and environmental monitoring in marine systems. The theme of the 2023 conference is “Grand Challenges in Marine Sciences for Sustainable Development in the UN Decade of the Oceans”. In addition to oral presentations and poster contributions, there will be room for networking.
The meeting will be co-organized by SHF, Umeå University and Umeå Marine Sciences Center (UMF). Preliminarily, the program will include the opportunity to visit UMF:s research infrastructure in Norrbyn. Additional meeting information and details for registration will be presented on the web and sent out at a later stage.
If you want to contribute with an oral presentation or show a poster at the conference, please feel free to already now submit an expression of interest together with a tentative title tostyrelsen@shf.se.
