Research

MARiS uses ocean biogeochemical and numerical modelling to understand ocean productivity, atmosphere-ocean interactions, ecosystem function and polar climate, and climate change impacts on marine ecosystems.

The South African coast is crucial for millions of lives, requiring monitoring and modeling to maintain its functionality.

Southern Ocean sea ice dynamics require a multidisciplinary approach for understanding atmosphere-ice-ocean relationships. MARIS fosters research in remote sensing technology, low-cost instrumentation, ocean hydrodynamics, and more.
