Upcoming Side Event: Scientific Ocean Drilling and the UN Ocean Conference (UNOC3)
The European Consortium for Ocean Research Drilling is organising a Side Event
connected to the United Nations Ocean Conference in Nice (UNOC3). The event is
scheduled in Villefranche-sur-Mer the week before the UNOC3, when the One Ocean
Science Conference will take place.
The purpose of the Side Event is to gain visibility and interest from the
wider oceanography community, which is too often unaware of the role of the
Seafloor in the functioning of oceanic basins, besides the implications for
climate change (past climate), resources, hazards, and how much our knowledge
depends on the ~70 years of existence of scientific ocean drilling.
