Das "Hellenic Centre for Marine Research" (HCMR) ist die zentrale Institution der staatlich finanzierten Meeresforschung Griechenlands. Es entstand im Jahr 2003 durch Vereinigung der bis dahin selbständigen Forschungsinstitute National Centre for Marine Research (NCMR) und Institute of Marine Biology of Crete (IMBC). Das Zentrum gliedert sich in fünf Institute: Institute of Oceanography, Institute of Aquaculture, Institute of Marine Biological Resources, Institute of Inland Waters, Institute of Marine Biology and Genetics. Die Institute befinden sich an den drei Standorten Heraklion (Kreta) und Anavyssos (Attika) und Ellinikon (bei Athen). Zu den Aufgabenfeldern gehören Umweltforschung, Technologie-Transfer, Aquakulturforschung, Multimediaentwicklung und IT-Projekte. Das HCMR ist Herausgeber des halbjährlich erscheinenden "Mediterranean Marine Science Journal" welches früher unter dem Namen "Thalassographica" bekannt war. Die besondere Aufgabe des "Institute of Marine Biological Resources" ist die Verknüpfung von Forschung und Technologieentwicklung in den Bereichen Biodiversität, Ökosystem-Management und Genetik mariner Organismen. Die Studien finden Anwendung z.B. im Umweltschutz, im Küstenmanagement oder in der Aquakuturtechnik. ... [Redaktion vifabio]
The Institute of Sea Fisheries provides the scientific basis and evaluates the economic conditions to guide the sustainable use of natural marine resources. This institute prepares decision support for the German Federal Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Consumer Protection (BMELV) with respect to the Common Fisheries Policy of the EU (CFP) and international marine conventions (i.a. NEAFC, NAFO, CCAMLR, OSPAR, IWC, ASCOBANS) of which Germany is a member. Through its scientific monitoring programs and research activities, the institute contributes to a general increase in knowledge about marine systems for the benefit of the international community.Based on its research, the institute enunciates advice to the Federal Ministry (Departments 621 and 622) and the European Commission (STECF, other EU advisory boards). The institute's scientific outcome also forms an important part of the German contribution to the annual advice for fisheries and marine ecosystems provided in collaboration with other European fisheries research institutions (ERA-NET) under the auspices of the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES). The institute takes part in international research projects funded by EU and other agencies in order to evaluate and resolve specific questions regarding the management of marine living resources and to further improve the scientific basis of its advice. ...
