A total of 61 oral presentations and 10 posters were presented at the symposium. The goals of Ecosystems 2010 were to: (1) evaluate global progress toward EBFM by reviewing regional case studies, development of new analytical tools, and practical approaches toward future progress; and (2) offer explicit, practical advice for future progress in implementation of EBFM. To meet these goals, oral presentations and posters were orga- nized along four main themes: (1) progress on regional applications; (2) new analytical tools and evaluation of ecosystem indicators; (3) human dimensions; and (4) case studies and practical solutions. The symposium attracted broad international interest and was attended by 108 registered participants from 19 countries: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Estonia, India, Italy, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, New Zealand, Norway, Pakistan, South Africa, Sweden, Taiwan, Thailand, United Kingdom, and USA. The size and diversity fostered a very col- legial atmosphere to discuss and contrast approaches in many regions of the world. The keynote and seven invited speakers further empha- sized the international focus of this symposium with presentations on contrasting marine ecosystems of Thailand, Korea, Japan, Australia, Namibia, Norway, and Atlantic Canada. The symposium was concluded with a panel discussion, which appears as the last paper in this proceedings. Symposium participants agreed that this was a very successful collaboration among ICES, PICES, FAO, and regional partner organizations. Participants urged a follow-up symposium on this same topic in the not-too-distant future.
