Welcome! This section of our website is intended for you, marine science researchers
and students. This section offers information regarding the organization´s research
activities.
One of EcoOcean's main objectives is to promote marine research in and around Israel.
The main tool supporting this research is our research ship, the "R/V Mediterranean
Explorer". This ship was custom built according to specific requirements for marine
research in the Mediterranean area and is extensively equipped with modern research
tools, allowing for varied marine studies. EcoOcean's policy is to provide the research
community with this innovative equipment at an affordable price.
In addition, EcoOcean invites marine science students from universities and research
institutes to visit our research ship and use it to practice modern research methods.
As an environmental organization, EcoOcean offers independent environmental research
projects, such as the program for monitoring the Israeli Mediterranean coast. Moreover,
EcoOcean welcomes collaborations with other environmental organizations in all matters
pertaining to marine research.
