Ways to dealwith changes in climate andmarine environment

Development of resources in the ocean

We perform researches to diagnose and predict the marine environment and climate change and to understand  the effects on the marine ecosystem, by integrating specialties in the �eld of Physical, Chemical, Biological and Geological Oceanography.

We perform researches to develop technologies for securing and utilizing marine bio-resources and deep sea mineral resources, and to explore oceans and extreme climate regions for excavation of new resources.
