    Description
    Description

    The implementation will through the UNESCO/IOC Regional Training and Research Center on Ocean Dynamics and Climate. Annual training course focus on the fields of ocean dynamics, air-sea interaction, numerical modeling and climate change will be held, in order to strengthen capabilities of marine scientific research for the countries in western Pacific region, enhance the capacity building in early warning and forecasting for marine environmental changes and disasters. The long-term cooperation mechanisms will be built for talent cultivation and exchange by seeking sustainable financial supports.
