MARUM – The ocean in depth!

Research

MARUM research focusses on the role of the ocean in the climate system, interactions between geosphere and biosphere, and dynamics of the ocean floor.
Infrastructure

MARUM operates and develops-cutting edge underwater technologies, archives for seafloors samples, the data center PANGAEA, and laboratories.
Early Career

Training of early career scientists is a major goal of MARUM. We provide training and services for our students from the PhD to the Postdoc level.
Discover

Exhibitions and videos, books and brochures, a school lab, press releases and social media inform the public about MARUM`s research activities.

Expedition SO273 "Marion Rise"

The video material shown here was recorded with the ROV MARUM-QUEST in the Indian Ocean during the expedition SO273 “Marion Rise”.

The Project "Marion Rise" is an international cooperation between Germany, USA, and China. The expedition was funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (Germany) and the National Science Foundation (USA).

The cruise SO273 was abandoned after 10 days station work due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
