The MEDDLE resources were developed to help researchers design and carry out tractable, intercomparable multiple driver experiments. In this workshop, participants will learn how to use these resources to design multiple driver experiments in an ocean acidification context – but the principles can be used for any environmental drivers.
Topics include :
- Defining the research question
- Identifying relevant drivers
- Identifying biological traits and responses
- Experimental designs for multiple driver experiments
- Statistical analysis plans
- Testing your design and analysis with the MEDDLE simulator
Hosted by SCOR Working Group 149, this free workshop will be led by :
- Christopher Cornwall (Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand)
- Ben Harvey (Shimoda Marine Research Center, University of Tsukuba, Japan)
- Steeve Comeau (Sorbonne University, France)
- Gil Rilov (University of Haifa, Israel)
- Christian Pansch (Åbo Akademi University, Finland)
- Bayden Russell (Swire Institute of Marine Science University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR, China)

If you would like to attend, contact Christopher Cornwall (christopher.cornwall@vuw.ac.nz) by 15th March to register your interest. Limited to 25 people, so please register early for planning purposes.
Please include a brief (<150 words) statement outlining (a) your experience carrying out OA or multiple driver experiments (if any) and (b) how you plan to incorporate multiple driver experiments into your work.
