OTGA/KMFRI/UNEP Marine Spatial Planning
Category: 2018
Marine spatial planning (MSP) arises as a public process of analysing and allocating the spatial and temporal distribution of human activities in marine areas to achieve ecological, economic, and social objectives that usually have been specified through a political process. By mapping activities and determining the space for each activity, the process provides a characterization of current uses and helps to establish potential areas for future uses. This enables a policy process to better determine how maritime zones are sustainably used and protected, now and for the future of African generations. This course will provide an overview of the MSP process, taking into consideration Africa’s specific needs and the 2050 African Integrated Maritime Strategy as well as the expected impa…

Regional Climate Change and Coastal Disaster Mitigation
Category: 2018
This course provides an overview of the current status of regional ocean climate and the common coastal disasters that pose threats to the economic and social development in the Asia-Pacific region. It provides an opportunity for participants to exchange the research progress on climate change, sea level rise and assessment, ocean disaster mitigation, etc. One day will be dedicated to operation and maintenance of ocean observing system in the Asia-Pacific region, from which the in-situ oceanographic and meteorological data are critical to ocean and climate studies. The course is a mix of both practical and theoretical sessions.

U.S. Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS) Biological Data Training Workshop
Category: 2018
This workshop builds on the successful partnership between the U.S. Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS) and the Ocean Biogeographic Information System (OBIS-USA) in coordination with IOC’s OceanTeacher Global Academy, and OBIS international to develop a community of practice around the management and analysis of marine biological data. It will provide hands-on training in a computer lab setting and is intended to educate participants on the benefits, goals, technology and process to standardize biological data (and associated physical or chemical data) and make it accessible via OBIS and IOOS, including the MBON Portal. The workshop will also expose participants to OBIS, IOOS and MBON applications for using those data.
