The Standing Committee on Fisheries Environment (STACFEN) of NAFO was present during the symposium, ICES-NAFO 4^th Decadal Variability of the North Atlantic and its Marine Ecosystems: 2010–2019, held in Bergen, Norway (20 – 22 June 2022). Frederic Cyr and Paula Fratantoni from STACFEN were members of the symposium's scientific committee, bridging ICES and NAFO scientists to challenges associated with changes in the climate-ocean system in the North Atlantic.

14 to 18 October 2013, St. Andrews, New Brunswick, Canada

3–6 November 2009  • Warnemünde, Germany

The symposium will present new findings on the syntheses of information over ecosystem components, on biological and physical aspects of the environment, and on new research approaches to understanding the role of marine mammals.

The Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization (NAFO), the North Pacific Marine Science Organization (PICES), and the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), announce a joint symposium on "Reproductive and Recruitment Processes of Exploited Marine Fish Stocks", to be held on 1-3 October 2007, at the Altis Hotel, in Lisbon, Portugal.

The symposium will provide a scientific forum to present and discuss study findings on reproduction, early life history and recruitment of exploited marine finfish and invertebrate stocks. Continued low abundance and low recruitment of many stocks necessitates a broad examination of key biological processes underlying potential stock recovery.
