Measurements in the open ocean help us understand the role and function of the seas in the earth system at basin and global scale. Open ocean measurements underpin our research on the role of the oceans in climate, natural hazards and the global marine ecosystems. This effort depends on international collabration through the Global Ocean Observing System.
Our research is intended to tackle the big environmental issues facing the world. Research priorities will include the oceans' role in climate change, sea level change and the future of the Arctic Ocean.
The University of Southampton and the University of Liverpool both offer a range of highly regarded undergraduate and post-graduate degrees in Ocean and Earth Science.
