Abstract Understanding climate change impacts on global marine ecosystems and fisheries requires complex ecosystem models, forced by projections, that can robustly detect project changes. The Fisheries Marine Ecosystems Model Intercomparison Project (FishMIP) uses an ensemble modeling approach to fill this crucial gap. Yet FishMIP does not have a standardised skill assessment framework quantify the ability of member models reproduce past observations guide model improvement. In study, we apply comprehensive subset produce historical catches. We consider suite metrics assess their utility in illustrating models' observed Our findings reveal improvement performance at both regional (Large Ecosystem) scales from Coupled Phase 5 6 simulation rounds. analysis underscores importance employing easily interpretable, relative estimate capability capture temporal variations, alongside absolute error measures characterize shifts magnitude these variations between across developed tested here provides first objective baseline ensemble's reproducing catch scale. This be further improved systematically applied test reliability whole future rounds include more variables like fish biomass or production.

The literature on whole of system approaches (WSAs) has been largely theoretical in focus. Australian Systems Approaches to Physical Activity is a national project designed contribute practical implementation focus such at the population level.National meetings were convened with federal and state government sector stakeholders identify physical activity (PA) related policies programs. Policies programs audited develop an understanding existing PA system. A WSA conceptual map for was developed using feedback from stakeholders, WSAs, work obesity.Completion policy audit revealed key areas need regarding governance, coordination, financing, evaluation. An initial Australia incorporating translation, advocacy. Stakeholder co-production integrated framework design plans community practice knowledge hub commenced.In Australia, partners have systems that guiding progress beyond application real world: audit, framework, planning hub.

Increasing volumes of data allow environmental scientists to use machine learning construct data-driven models phenomena. These can provide decision-relevant predictions, but confident decision-making requires that the involved uncertainties are understood. We argue existing frameworks for characterizing not appropriate because their focus on distinct locations uncertainty. propose a framework uncertainty assessment uses argument analysis assess justification assumption model is fit predictive purpose at hand. Its flexibility makes applicable models. The illustrated using case study from science. show be subject substantial second-order uncertainty, i.e., in they often applied ill-understood problems. close by discussing implications decision-making.
