CESABINARs are monthly webinars designed to provide FRB-CESAB research groups with a platform to present their key findings once their residency has ended. Open to the entire scientific community, these webinars offer the opportunity to discover the advancements and work emerging from FRB-CESAB.
CESABINARs, which are held in English on Zoom, last approximately one hour: 40 minutes are dedicated to the presentation, followed by 20 minutes of discussion for questions and deeper exploration of the topics covered.

What: Fish biodiversity under global change – a worldwide assessment from scientific trawl surveys
Global change, linked to climate and direct anthropogenic impacts, is causing redistribution of marine species worldwide, modifying fish population and stock structure, as well as community compositions. These changes may have strong impacts on fisheries and natural fish biodiversity as well as related ecosystem services. However, our capacity to assess and monitor short and long-term changes in species distribution and biodiversity is hampered by data availability and heterogeneity. This Cesabinar will present the FISHGLOB project which has collected and combined a unique data set of scientific bottom trawl surveys conducted regularly during the last decades across the globe. FISHGLOB aims to provide an infrastructure enhancing international cooperation and knowledge transfer among data providers, scientists and stakeholders in order to support biodiversity and fishery management adaptation in a time of global change. Topics during the Cesabinar will cover the FISHGLOB consortium, data and infrastructure features, as well as key research results established from this large and unique data set regarding the effects of global change on marine fish.
