On March 2016 a basic course on the Ecopath with Ecosim (EwE) modeling approach was held in Hobart, Tasmania, Australia. The course introduced the current capabilities of the EwE desktop software (www.ecopath.org) focusing on the advanced features for parameterization of EwE models through online databases such as FishBase and WoRMS.
The course was structured between presentations and computer time. Local participants were invited to use their own models for the course. During the course specific sessions were dedicated to introduce to participants how BlueBRIDGE can support the EwE models.
