The 13th GRC on Polar Marine Science will highlight recent advances in the understanding of physical-chemical-biological linkages and feedback processes across coupled ocean-cryosphere-atmosphere-ecosystems of the Arctic and Southern oceans. Special emphasis will be given to understand impacts on polar marine species, food webs and habitats. Sessions will highlight recent advance in polar climate change detection and attribution, impacts of multiple stressors on biota, changes in habitat distribution, integrated approaches to collect multi-disciplinary observations, and novel methods to analyze and link long-term time-series data with conceptual and numerical models.
