Bio-economic Modelling
Plymouth Marine Laboratory (PML) science
outcomes provide solutions to many of the emerging environmental
global challenges. The development from this research of relevant,
practical and integrated solutions for delivering a sustainable
basis to marine ecosystem management has never been more important
and is a key component of its strategy.
PML Applications has been a partner in exploring the wider
development of a bio-economic model that connects production
systems and markets around the world.
Although focused on the global fishmeal market, this model and
its interactive role-play game may have important applications in
relation to a number of global environmental issues.
Through these initiatives, which have their foundations in the
world-class scientific research being carried out at PML, PML
Applications is developing and delivering a number of pragmatic and
potentially commercial solutions to some of the current critically
important global environmental issues.
