The purpose of #EBM is to rigorously manage the endogenous pressures we can control to enhance the ecosystem's resilience, making it strong enough to withstand the exogenous pressures.

Thank you for joining us for this #ges4seas #mooc on the topic of #EBM […]

Science in 2026: the events to watch for in the coming year

The rise of AI scientists, missions to explore the moons of Earth and Mars and a massive ocean-floor drill are among the developments set to shape research in 2026.

this is a good distinction, the management is based on the ecosystems, but actions and measures are taken on human activities and pressures or to revert impacts (e.g. restoration)

This week, our final question for the topic of #EBM: Can an ecosystem really be "managed"?

The short answer is no. We don't manage the ecosystem; we manage the human activities that impact it. This is a critical distinction. #mooc #ges4seas
