NOT CACHED
Johanna Myrseth Aarflot
Arbeidsområde
Part of my current position is connected with the CoastRISK project, a strategic institute project at the IMR where we aim to develop and implement an Integrated Ecosystem Assessment (IEA) framework for Norwegian coastal ecosystems. This work also involves case-studies designed to enhance our current understanding of ecosystems along the Norwegian coast and adjacent fjords, and conducting a risk analysis identifying present and future pressures to these systems.
I am also affiliated with the Nansen Legacy project (www.arvenetternansen.no) research focus 4 (The future Barents Sea), where my role is to develop and implement an individual-based model of Calanus glacialis in the Barents Sea ecosystem. The IBM will be a module in the NORWegian ECOlogical Model system End-To-End (NORWECOM.E2E), which already comprises several copepod and fish IBMs and gives an interesting framework for studying dynamics between key ecosystem players in the Nordic Seas.
Since 2017, I have been involved in IMR's work related to the Commicion for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) in collaboration with other representatives from the Norwegian delegation (IMR, Norwegian Polar Institute). At present, I engage in work related to an MPA proposal outside Dronning Maud Land/Lazarev Sea, a work which is lead by the NPI.
