Interim Report of the Working Group on Maritime Systems (WGMARS)

This was the first interim year for the multi-annual Terms of References (ToRs) for the Working Group on Maritime Systems (WGMARS) and the meeting was hosted by the Stockholm Resilience Centre. ToR A is the social network analysis of ICES networks and their functioning. ToR B is an analysis of the management plan land-scape in Europe, eventually comparing it to other parts of the world. An additional ToR, ToR C, addresses how to best integrate stakeholders in ICES work. ToR C was initiated by Steve Mackinson as a response to the latest MIRAC meeting (meeting between ICES and the RACs) and on-going work in the GAP2 project.
