Marine Biology

海洋生物学 Marine Biology
地球上で最大の生命圏である海という環境と,そこに展開する多様な生命現象を,分子から個体群にいたるさまざまなレベルで解説する.第1部では海洋生物の生態や系統進化を学ぶことによりその多様性を理解し,第2部では海洋環境への多様な適応・繁殖機構を生理・生態・進化学的観点から解析するアプローチを学び,第3部では海洋生物のユニークな分子機能やその進化,利用について分子やゲノムの観点から学習する.
The ocean is the largest ecosystem on Earth where diverse organisms inhabit. In this course, forefront research topics in different disciplines of marine biology will be introduced by professors from the Atmosphere and Ocean Research Institute. The schedule is given below.
