Research
R/V Skagerak is part of the University of Gothenburg's unique research infrastructure, enabling marine scientists to go further and deeper with studies in chemistry, physics, geology and biology.
As one of the most flexible research vessels in the world, R/V Skagerak is able to offer tailored solutions for different types of surveys and measurements. We are also actively working to contribute to opportunities for more interdisciplinary research on board. In this way, the activities aboard R/V Skagerak contribute to strengthening our ability to meet the challenges facing the oceans.
The Department of Marine Sciences works to understand the ocean environment and to seek solutions to our most pressing environmental challenges. (Vision and Strategy – Marine Sciences)
