PMRI Research Scopes

极地与海洋研究院（Polar and Marine Research Institute）于2021年9月成立，汇聚了我国最早从事极地海洋碳循环和生物地球化学循环的成员。研究院成员瞄准全球气候变化这一重大科学问题，以研究海洋酸化和碳中和为核心和主线，已具备多学科交叉的特色。在研究方法上，有大数据、观测数据、历史资料的支撑，同时综合海洋环境化学、海洋工程、遥感地理学、地球模型、海洋同位素示踪，可以从科学、工程、技术等多角度探究气候变化对海洋环境带来的影响；在研究方向上，响应国家应对气候变化、实现可持续发展的需求，海洋碳循环与酸化机制是科学衡量海洋“碳中和”的基础；在研究尺度上，从表层海洋到次表层再到沉积物-水界面，从季节内到年代际时间尺度，能充分支撑对海洋“碳中和”过程的全程追踪。
此外，研究院坚持走国际化发展路线，科学研究力求具备国际视野，与美国、瑞典、英国等国际碳循环研究领先实验室保持长期良好的合作关系。

The Polar and Marine Research Institute (PMRI) was established in September 2021, bringing together scientists that have been the earliest in China to focus on polar ocean carbon cycle and its biogeochemistry. Aiming at the major scientific problem of global climate change, we have taken ocean acidification and carbon neutrality as the core and main line of research, and have been characterized by multidisciplinary collaborations. In terms of research methods, we have merged datasets including observational and historical data, and supported by techniques from marine environmental chemistry, marine engineering, remote sensing geography, earth modeling, and marine isotope tracing. We can explore the impact of climate change on the marine environment from multiple perspectives of science, engineering, and technology. In terms of research direction, the mechanism of ocean carbon cycle and acidification is the basis for scientific assessment of ocean carbon neutrality in response to the needs of China to cope with climate change and achieve sustainable development. In terms of research scale, we focus from surface ocean to subsurface and deep layers and to sediment-water interface, from intra-seasonal to inter-decadal timescales, which can fully support the tracking of the whole process of ocean carbon neutrality.
In addition, the Institute adheres to the path of international development and strives to have an international perspective in scientific research. It maintains long-term good cooperative relations with leading international carbon cycle research laboratories in the United States, Sweden and the United Kingdom.
