Track 2:Physical Oceanography

Physical oceanography is the study of physical conditions and physical processes within the ocean, especially the motions and physical properties of ocean waters. Physical oceanography focuses on describing and understanding the evolving patterns of ocean circulation andfluid motion,along with the distribution of its properties such as temperature, salinity and the concentration of dissolvedchemical elementsand gases. The ocean as a dynamic fluid is studied at a wide range of spatial scales, from the centimetre scales relevant to turbulent microstructure through the many thousand kilometre scales of the ocean gyres and global overturning circulation. Approaches include theory, direct observation, and computer simulation. Our research frequently takes place in the context of important multidisciplinary issues including the dynamics and predictability of globalclimateand thesustainability of human use in coastal and estuarine regions.

Track 3:Biological Oceanography

Biological oceanographyis the study of life in the oceans the distribution, abundance, and production of marine species along with the processes that govern species' spread and development. The goal of biological oceanography is to understand what controls the abundances, kinds, and temporal variation of organisms in the sea. Our research and teaching programs are oriented toward a mechanistic understanding of processes. To this end we employ a variety of approaches including field observations, laboratory experiments and theoretical models.Biological oceanographersandmarine biologistsapproach the study of marine organisms from different perspectives. Biological oceanographers tend to study how organisms both shape and are shaped by the physics, chemistry, and geology of a system while marine biologists tend to study organisms themselves, including theirphysiology, life history, and distribution patterns. IGPMS has an array of opportunities in both of these related and at times overlapping areas. Current research focuses on a wide diversity of organisms, from bacteria to phytoplankton to marine invertebrates to fish. Opportunities exist to conduct research all over the world, fromPolar Regionsto tropical seas and from coastal to open oceanecosystems. Research questions span topics as diverse as ocean acidification, carbon cycling, larval dispersal, organismal development,parasitology,marine toxicology, marine natural products, coral reef ecology, and fisheries management.

Track 6:Marine Geology and GIS application

Marine geologyor geological oceanography is the study of the history and structure of the ocean floor. It involvesgeophysical, geochemical,sedimentologicaland paleontological investigations of the ocean floor and coastal zone. Marine geology has strong ties to physical oceanography.

Marine geological studies were of extreme importance in providing the critical evidence for sea floor spreading and plate tectonics in the years following World War II. The deep ocean floor is the last essentially unexplored frontier and detailed mapping in support of both military objectives and economic objectives drives the research i.e. in Petroleum Field.

The physical, biological and social resources of our coastal and marine environment threatened by new global warming system have raised many questions. In terrestrial realm GIS has been widely used and applied to assist in precision management ofagriculture, forestry, urban planning, business, and national defence. There is now equally strong demand for precision management of coastal andmarine resources.The development of protected marine area which requires scientists and managers to asses resources usage having area time approach. So spatial as well as temporal approach needed. It requires having balance between optimum usage of resources andbiological conservation.Marine GIShas wide range of applications and can be categorized as coastal, oceanographic, and fisheries. Oceanography describes mapping and measurement of major oceans and fisheries concern with management process of fisheries.

Track 7:Marine Pollution

Marinepollutionoccurs when harmful, or potentially harmful, effects result from the entry into the ocean of chemicals, particles,industrial,agricultural and residential waste, noise, or the spread of invasive organisms.Nutrient pollution, a form of water pollution, refers to contamination by excessive inputs of nutrients. It is a primary cause of eutrophication of surface waters, in which excess nutrients, usually nitrogen or phosphorus, stimulate algae growth. Many potentiallytoxic chemicalsadhere to tiny particles which are then taken up by plankton and benthos animals, most of which are either deposit or filter feeders. In this way, the toxins are concentrated upward within ocean food chains. Many particles combine chemically in a manner highly depletive of oxygen, causing estuaries to become anoxic.

Toxic metalscan also be introduced into marine food webs. These can cause a change to tissue matter, biochemistry, behaviour, reproduction, and suppress growth in marine life. Also, many animal feeds have a high fish meal orfish hydrolysatecontent. In this way, marine toxins can be transferred to land animals, and appear later in meat and dairy products.

Track 8:Oceans and Climate Change

Ocean Covers 70 percent of the Earths surface, the worlds oceans have a two-way relationship withweather and climate.Theoceansinfluence the weather on local to global scales, while changes in climate can fundamentally alter many properties of the oceans. This chapter examines how some of these important characteristics of the oceans have changed over time.

Asgreenhouse gasestrap more energy from the sun, the oceans are absorbing more heat, resulting in an increase in sea surface temperatures and rising sea level. Changes in ocean temperatures and currents brought about byclimate changewill lead to alterations in climate patterns around the world. For example, warmer waters may promote the development of stronger storms in thetropics, which can cause property damage and loss of life. The impacts associated with sea level rise and stronger storms are especially relevant to coastal communities. Changes in ocean systems generally occur over much longer time periods than in the atmospherewhere storms can form and dissipate in a single day. Interactions between the oceans and atmosphere occur slowly over many months to years, and so does the movement of water within the oceans, including the mixing of deep and shallow waters.

Track 9:Coastal Oceanography

Coastal oceanographyincludes both physical and biological aspects. Physical coastal oceanography research at BML focuses on ocean upwelling, land runoff, and the connections between coastal estuaries and the ocean. Coastalat the land-sea interface is a unique niche in oceanography and there is little doubt that the Coastal Oceanography Group (COG), is highly productive at both regional and national/international levels. The COG focuses on regional place-based research along the north coast of California, taking advantage of the unique ocean upwelling zone, as well as in comparable regions globally. With new as well as continued collaborations withbiologistsand modellers, and with diverse funding for this research, the COG has made a major impact on our understanding of coastal processes at both the basicphysical oceanography.

Track 12:Oceanography Market

The level ofglobal economicactivity and the resultant amount of world trade. It is estimated that over 90% of world trade is carried by sea and over the period 1985 to 1999, world seaborne trade increased by 50% to about 5 billion tons with the largest increase coming incrude oilandoil productsshipments. During 1990-98 growth averaged 3.2% per annum. It is reported that in 1998 trade experienced its first dip for 15 years, which was due to the S.E. Asian economic problems. However, the decline was generally only within the region. Since then some of the countries concerned have accomplished a turnaround. Global markets consist of three major regions; Europe and North America are similar in size forming 25% and 26% of the market. Asia forms the largest region at an estimated 34%, with much of this shipbuilding and shipping activity centered in S.E. Asia. The Marine Industries growth over next five years could total $51 billion, the largest being in the sectors of marine transportation, Port Industries, Leisure Industries Including Leisure boating and the cruise business, Offshoreoil & gasindustry. Marine Science Conferences aims is to aggregate the eminent researchers, academicians and scientists from the field ofMarine Oceanography, Marine sciences, Marine biology and specific related areas to create a platform for strong exchange of the recent advancement and technologies towards marineoceanography.

5th International Conference on Oceanography and Marine Biology

October 16-18, 2017 Seoul, South Korea

Theme: Contemporary challenges and innovative solutions for sustainable oceans

Importance & Scope of Oceanography:

Oceanography covers both the deep oceans and the much shallower coastal regions. The breadth of knowledge in oceanography means oceanographers tend to be rather specialized around one specific subject. Many different sorts of tools and instruments are used in oceanography. While ships are certainly a part of this, other methods, such as stationary underwater observatories, are also used to study the ocean. Modern oceanographers also use automated underwater vehicles and sophisticated scanning devices to uncover information more quickly than direct human effort could accomplish.

The Conference will provide an overview on the latest trends and achievements in ocean sciences and technologies applied to oceanography and will explore future needs, developments as well as management and governance. The target audience is intended primarily for oceanographers, researchers, engineers, academics, conservation organizations, industry leaders, policy and decision makers that have coastal and marine related responsibilities.

Why its in Seoul, South Korea:

As a leading NODC in Korea operated by the National Fisheries Research & Development Institute, the Korea Oceanography Data Centre aims to collect and manage oceanographic information and distribute it both at home and abroad. This coordinates international cooperation with oceanographic agencies in the world. The Korean government announced the establishment of the Korea Oceanography Data Centre (KODC) to the IOC in 1974, and KODC was listed as a representative Korean NODC in the "Guide for Establishing a National Oceanographic Data Centre" published by UNESCO in 1975. In addition, KODC notified the IOC and the
