Co-delivery and co-synthesis: Design Digital Ocean Twin and a West African observation network
Expansion of international
graduate programs in West Africa
Transfer to politics and society:
Joint development of sustainable management concepts
In various multidisciplinary scientific working groups knowledge gaps of the function of the Eastern boundary upwelling system West off Africa are identified and research questions developed.
Co-design workshops are taking place and funding proposals for conducting the field campaign are developed (including proposal for ship times). Concept for data infrastructure is developed. Pre-studies start.
Infrastructure for concerted ocean observation is set.
