With its multidisciplinary focus the Institute of Marine Research (IfM) at the University of Kiel is one of the most diverse institutions for research and teaching in marine sciences around the world.
One of the key issues on the research agenda of the institute is a better understanding of the oceans role for climate and environmental changes. The research programme addresses physical, chemical and biological processes in determining the ocean circulation, the functions of marine ecosystems and the interaction with the atmosphere.. |
