Big Science for Big Challenges
We need to understand the complex nature of our oceans in order to predict how future changes influence human society.
We need to understand the complex nature of our oceans in order to predict how future changes influence human society.
We engage in research covering a range of oceanographic disciplines to help us to further understand the complex nature of our changing seas.
Good quality, accessible data are key to all our science research.
Ocean science is big science and we collaborate on projects with science organisations.
One of the main outputs of our science is publications.
Information and downloadable resources for those learning about the ocean, or teaching ocean related topics.
We know the ocean is critical to life on earth, yet we are facing a dramatic decline in ocean health, with human activity affecting sea levels, temperature and the millions of species that call the ocean home. Our ambition is to make a positive impact, drive change and bring public benefit in all we do.
