Dynamics of Coastal Zone of Non-Tidal Seas

Conference on the Dynamics of Coastal Zone of Non-Tidal Seas
27 - 30 June 2010
Baltiysk , RUSSIAN FEDERATION

The purpose of the Conference (school-seminar) is to transfer the current knowledge on hydrodynamic and physical aspects of coastal oceanography from senior scientists to young researchers and to provide an opportunity for all participants to share their scientific achievements and ideas to ensure further progress in understanding the physical fundamentals of nearshore and coastal dynamics. The Conference will serve as a school-seminar, and, therefore, two forms of presentations will be used - invited lectures by leading experts and poster sessions by other participants. The Conference continues the tradition of its first successful predecessor, held in Baltiysk (Russia) in June-July, 2008. Important dates in 2010

About our Network

The location of our Network

The length of the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov coast of Ukraine is about 2500 km. In Ukraine a number of research institutes (the leaders are the Marine Hydrophysical Institute (MHI), the Institute of Biology of Southern Seas (IBSS), the Institute of Geological Sciences (IGS), the Ukrainian Scientific Center of the Ecology of Sea (UkrSCES), Southern Scientific Research Institute of Marine Fisheries and Oceanography (SSRIMFO), etc.), companies, NGO’s and municipal administrations are involved or have responsibilities for coastal and marine management and research.

However the links existing at present between and within the communities of coastal science, policy and practice are weak and suffer from fragmentation. Creation of the Ukrainian Network for Coastal Research (UKRNCORA) will contribute to improvement of the policy preparation and decision making of the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov.

Ukraine will create opportunities to introduce experience with coastal policies and practices of the ENCORA network. Dissemination and exchange of information, knowledge, experience and research results regarding coastal zones will contribute to harmonization of coastal policies and management practices around the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov.
