Applications Open! 2025 African Ocean Research Discovery Camp

SCOR is pleased to announce that the next Regional Graduate Network in Oceanography (RGNO), a SCOR-supported cooperative research and capacity building initiative, will take place from 29 September to 17 October 2025 at the University of Namibia’s Sam Nujoma Marine Research Center in Henties Bay and Namibia’s National Marine Information and Research Center in Swakopmund, Namibia.

The RGNO is a research-driven, intense learning experience in the biogeosciences of the Benguela Current Ecosystem (BCE), a particularly interesting ocean habitat. Participation is most valuable for people who are actively involved in an ongoing research project to which the course topics can contribute and who would like to apply their skills to a better understanding of the BCE. Participants will have opportunity to work at sea on the R/V Mirabilis as well as conduct laboratory analysis.

The course is for dedicated early career researchers with an international perspective and who care about the Ocean: PhD candidates and honors MSc students majoring in one of the natural science fields, professors, and young scientists holding an equivalent degree with specialization in oceanography.
