1  CASIX, the Centre for observation of Air-Sea Interactions & fluXes
CASIX, the Centre for observation of Air-Sea Interactions & fluXes, is a NERC Centre of Excellence in Earth Observation. Our scientific focus is on advancing the science of air-sea interactions and reducing the errors in the prediction of climate change. The primary goal is to quantify accurately the global air-sea fluxes of carbon dioxide (CO2). CASIX will accelerate the exploitation of new Earth Observation satellite data to further the understanding of marine biogeochemistry in the Earth System. CASIX links NERC Centres, university groups and the Met Office to model ocean circulation and the ocean carbon cycle.

2  Plymouth Marine Laboratory (PML)
Our science is mission driven and delivers a valuable, integrated approach to solving problems and providing solutions concerning the complexity of marine ecosystems and the unique bioresources they contain. PML’s research mission blends understanding the major issues of concern today, with developing the expertise, tools and technologies needed to make significant advances in examining and solving the detailed processes that underpin marine ecosystems. We are therefore uniquely qualified to research and advise on many of the issues that form the debate on global change and sustainability in marine systems.
