Other sessions of interest included "Antarctic contributions to global ecosystem services and to a general understanding of ecosystem functioning", "Ocean Acidification", and "Scientific Advice for Policymakers". Find out more about this conference.

4-9 August 2014 - ClimEco4 IMBER Summer School, Shanghai, China. The IMBER ClimEco4 summer school provided training to enable participants to source, analyse, and transform data into indicators to assess the ecological state of a marine ecosystem, environmental states and trends, implications for society, and long-term ecosystem sustainability. Find out more about this summer school.

30 June-4 July 2014 - AMEMR IV, Plymouth, UK. The symposium explored and identified the contemporary challenges facing the marine modelling community, as well as providing a platform on which to showcase the latest advancements. Find out more about this conference.

23-27 June 2014 - IMBER Open Science Conference: Future Oceans, Bergen, Norway. This meeting provided a synthesis of a range of topics related to marine biogeochemical cycles, ecosystem response to global change, and prediction of the effects on the Earth System and human society. ICED hosted a session entitled "Detecting, projecting and managing the impacts of change in Southern Ocean ecosystems".
