ISOBAY is a biennial multidisciplinary meeting dedicated to the study of the Bay of Biscay—from the coastal zone to the open sea and transitional waters.
The main goal of this biennial symposium, which reaches its 19th edition, is to present scientific most updated works related to the Bay of Biscay, from the coastal zone to the open sea, and its transitional waters between land and sea (estuaries, lagoons, deltas and rias) where human activities are increasing and produce important pressures resulting in effects on the marine ecosystems.
In this context, a wide range of research topics are undertaken and ISOBAY can therefore be considered as a multidisciplinary symposium to discuss the hot topics being investigated within this bay. Scientific studies may be integrated into one or more of the symposium’s themes, under a broad scope:
- Physical oceanography
- Climate-ocean relations; Geology, erosion, transport and sedimentation
- Biogeochemical cycles
- Biodiversity, structure and functioning of ecosystems
- Fisheries and aquaculture; Anthropogenic effects, quality assessment and ecosystem management
- Blue technologies, marine resources and Marine Spatial Planning
