MEDDLE Workshop at the 9th Asian Pacific Phycological Forum (APPF, 2024).

MEDDLE held a training workshop at the recent 9th Asian Pacific Phycological Forum in Sapporo, Hokkaido (April 14th - 18th, 2024). Participants of the APPF conference (post-graduate students, early-career researchers, and academics alike) were invited to participate in the single-day workshop designed to assist in the design, undertaking, and analysis of complex multiple-driver ocean change experiments.

Participants designed their own multi-driver experiments in a step-by-step process using MEDDLE’s own ‘Best Practice Guide to Ocean Research’, and successfully constructed research projects that were environmentally relevant, tractable, statistically meaningful, and feasible.


On behalf of the MEDDLE team and SCOR 149 working group, we would like to thank all of our workshop participants and the Asian Pacific Phycology Association (APPA) for their support. Special thanks also to our workshop organizers: Dr Christopher Cornwall, Dr Ben Harvey, Holly Koch, and Denisa Berbece.
