Oceanography
Seventy percent of the surface of the earth is covered with water. To understand the planet, we need to understand the oceans - their physics and their chemistry.
Ocean research
The Geophysical Institute has three oceanographic research groups. Try the links in column to the right for information about each of them.
Ocean studies
If you consider studying oceanography, you may want to have a look at our bachelor program in meteorology and oceanography, or our master programs in physical and chemical oceanography.
