Results from the Norway-Canada Comparison of Marine Ecosystems (NORCAN) project are used together with previous publications to develop possible future ecosystem scenarios in the Labrador Sea and the Norwegian/Barents seas under climate change. Changes in the physical environments are described based on results from Atmospheric-Ocean Global Circulation Models (AOGCMs) and regional downscaled models. Possible effects of these physical changes on the ecology of the two regions are highlighted. Results indicate strong spatial differences in these responses both within and between the regions depending upon the primary dynamical processes that are in play.
