Integrated Understanding of Marine Environment and Marine Ecosystems

Program Theme

There is a widely recognized need to deepen our understanding of the rapidly changing marine environment and ecosystems through interdisciplinary research. The theme of this program is an integrated understanding of the physical, biogeochemical, and biological environments of the oceans, which have been studied as separate disciplines; an understanding of the global marine ecosystems that are supported by these environments; and an understanding of the mechanisms of change in these ecosystems in a future environment. This thematic program will provide a forum for discussing how interdisciplinary research should be advanced, taking advantage of the latest research methods and new data.
