Abstract
A joint workshop by the Nansen Legacy and Barents Risk projects, to explore the possible states of the Barents Sea by the horizon 2050, the associated risks and the possible ways to mitigate or adapt to them.
Highlights
The group considered a scenario with continuation of trends in climate, ecosystem and fisheries associated with degraded global context and governance
Under this scenario, degraded fisheries elsewhere lead to increase in the demand for fishing access from national and foreign fleets in the Barents Sea and this increases the risk of areal/cross sectoral conflicts
Most of these cruises are conducted on the new Norwegian research icebreaker RV Kronprins Haakon
