Profound knowledge on the future ocean is essential for the adequate handling of ocean risks and sustainable use of marine resources. The main challenge in this respect is the understanding of ocean changes, both man-made and natural, and its consequences. Detecting and understanding these changes, and linking key aspects of a changing ocean to a full picture are the overarching goals of the 3rd symposium on the Future Ocean.

Abstract submission
Please submit your abstract to Emanuel Söding and Kirsten Schäfer at
symposium@ozean-der-zukunft.de
by May 1, 2010.
The abstracts will be evaluated by the scientific steering committee.

Registration
Online registration is yet not possible. We will open registration from April 1, 2010.

Scientific Programme
Today’s knowledge of the future ocean is addressed and reflected in seven topics from processes at the ocean surface to those starting at the sea-floor; from river-mouths to coral-reefs, from estimating the past to future CO2 intake capacity to valuing and managing ocean changes economically.
