The_Science_We_Need_For_The_Ocean_We_Want.pdfLaunched by the United Nations last 01 January 2021 (A/RES/72/73), UN Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development, or the “Ocean Decade” is a global effort to translate ocean knowledge into greater benefits for both humanity and the planet.
Aside from seeking to know more about the health of our oceans and what can be done to preserve, maintain and optimize it, The Decade also seeks to catalyze the human behavioral change required for the successful implementation of these solutions.
The Ocean Decade offers a great opportunity for oceanography to put in place a more complete and sustainable observing system, and to feed the resulting data into a science-based ocean management system satisfying the increasing reliance of our civilization on the ocean, its ecosystem services, while at the same time preserving the health of our oceans.

What is the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development?
The Ocean Decade will harness, stimulate and empower interdisciplinary ocean research at all levels, to support the timely delivery of the data, information and knowledge needed to achieve a well-functioning ocean in support of all SDGs of the 2030 Agenda.

The Decade Resource - Video II: From the discovery of unknown marine areas to marine scientific research
This is the second video out of a series of six videos. The video describes the structure of the seas and oceans according to the United Nations Convention for the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS).
The videos are produced by the Institute for the Law of the Sea and International Marine Environmental Law (ISRIM) in the context of the German Science Year 2016*17 - Seas and Oceans of the German Federal Ministry for Education and Research (BMBF).
