The state of the Mediterranean Sea evolves across multiple time and spatial scales, driven by both external forcing and internal dynamics. From large, quasi-steady currents spanning hundreds of kilometres to mesoscale, submesoscale, and small-scale turbulence at just a few meters, these processes strongly influence the basin's biogeochemistry, productivity, and overall health.
With climate change amplifying existing pressures-such as intense maritime traffic, overfishing, mass tourism, pollution, biodiversity loss, and habitat degradation-understanding these multiscale interactions has never been more critical. Advancing our knowledge is key to predicting the basin's future and safeguarding its ecosystems and societies.
As in previous years, the General Assembly will precede the workshop, taking place on 2 December 2025.
Further information, including logistics and the detailed programme, will be shared soon.
