Report

Number of participants 110

TEAMS (Tohoku Ecosystem-Associated Marine Sciences) has surveyed and clarified the effect of the Great East Japan Earthquake on the marine ecosystems and environment and their recovering processes afterward from a scientific point of view. Based on the results and 2004 tsunami in Thailand, we discussed with persons concerned with administration and fishery and so on about the reconstruction of local fisheries and its related industries in panel discussion (Restoring Our Rich Ocean through Science).

As a result, We could have common understand to need to scientifically understand the extent of the damage to the marine environment and ecosystem in coastal area of the Tohoku, and to come up with progressive methods of restoring the fishing industry.
