As a learned society, the IMarEST is committed to collecting
and disseminating information from the worlds of marine science,
engineering and technology. This page includes information
on Marine Science publications, working groups and branch
activities and the marine science forum.
Publications

For those people working in the fields of oceanography, marine
chemistry, geosciences, hydrography, ecology and marine management
to name but a few , the marine scientist makes for essential
reading. Written by marine scientists for marine scientists
the new professional science journal of the IMarEST is researched
and written by individuals with a wealth of experience in
the maritime field.
Previous issues have included interviews with respected marine
scientists such as David Bellamy who urges us to stop Fishing,
Eric Wolanski who talks about computer visualisation and multi
disciplinary ecosystem modelling and Professor John Shepherd
who explains why he feels marine science is undervalued. Features
cover topics such as marine renewables, reef watch, observational
oceanography, ocean education, pollution and physical oceanography.
The Marine Scientist will regularly contains news, debates
and views from the scientific community, reader letters, job
advertisements and event listings.

The Journal of Marine Science and Environment.
Part C- The Proceedings of the IMarEST)
 |
|
The journal
disseminates and reports on scientific and applied research
advances associated with all aspects of marine science
and the marine environment and is aimed at all those working
in the physical, chemical and biological disciplines and
with associated technologies. The journal also incorporates
papers that take and interdisciplinary approach to unravelling
scientific problems and those which address the crucial
role of novel technologies in making significant advances
in understanding ocean processes. |
Subjects covered include: Ballast Water, Communications and
Navigation, Diving, Environmental Assessment, Fishing and
Aquaculture, Geology, Hydrography, Impact of Marine Environmental
Changes, Marine Biology, Marine Biotechnology, Marine Mineral
Resources, Marine Pollution, Modelling, Oceanography (Physical,
Chemical and Biological), Oceans and Climate, Offshore Oil
and Gas, Seabed Mapping, Subsea.
This collection of papers is published by IMarEST twice a
year.

Branch Activities and Special Interest
Groups
The Institute's international dimension is reinforced by
the activities of its 5 Divisions and 47 Branches
which are located across the globe. The branches play a vital
role within the Institute by promoting technical activities
through meetings and conferences and by developing links with
IMarEST members, other professional bodies, government, schools
and industry at local level. The Institute has also developed
an extensive network of Corresponding members to provide a
focus for those members located in a region without a branch.
The IMarEST also hosts a number of special interest groups
and working groups such as the Small Ships Group and the Young
Marine Professionals Network. We are committed to expanding
existing groups and developing new groups. To get involved

Forum
A forum exists for marine science professionals to discuss
and compare views on a number of different elements from the
work of the institute to help with homework. You need to be
