SUMMARY:Oceanography to fish population genetics: multidisciplinary studie
 s with numerical models - Emma Young\, British Antarctic Survey

CONTACT:Dr Emma Boland
DESCRIPTION:Understanding the key drivers of population connectivity in th
 e marine environment is essential for the effective management of natural 
 resources\, and for estimating the potential impacts of climate change on 
 the resilience and genetic structure of populations. I will describe the u
 se of a ‘seascape genetics’ approach\, combining oceanographic\, Lagra
 ngian\, and genetics modelling with observations of population genetic str
 ucture\, to understand the role of oceanographic connectivity on the popul
 ation genetics of two Antarctic fishes\, Champsocephalus gunnari and Notot
 henia rossii. I will then illustrate the application of the numerical mode
 ls to explore the impacts of a warming climate on the connectivity and pop
 ulation genetics of these two fish species\, and discuss the potential imp
 lications for their ability to adapt to environmental change.
