会议主题：多学科交叉研究海洋环境
Symposium Theme: The Changing Ocean Environment：from a Multidisciplinary Perspective
专题1：物理海洋学及其与化学海洋学、生物海洋学和地质海洋学的交叉（主持人：修鹏博士、程鹏博士）
海洋作为一个整合的系统，其内部水体的运动、温盐结构特征、物质和能量的交换与转换既与全球变化和人类活动紧密相联，又与海洋中的生物、化学和地质过程相互影响，是认识和理解关键海洋特征与过程的重要一环。本专题立足于海洋物理过程研究中的新发现和新研究，重点关注海洋物理过程与海洋化学、生物、和地质过程的相互作用及影响机制，以期从不同角度综合理解和评估海洋环境变化。
专题2：海洋与河口生物地球化学过程与机制（主持人：Dr. Eric DeCarlo、郭香会博士）
第二专题提供一个交流和探讨不同时空尺度的生物地球化学过程新认知的机会，涉及的主要内容包括碳和其他生源要素的循环及生物地球化学过程对人为活动和气候变化的响应、物理-生物地球化学耦合过程对海洋中物质循环的影响、同位素海洋生物地球化学、新技术/新方法等。本专题讨论的研究区域既包括开阔大洋、边缘海和河口（包括地上河口和地下河口），也包括盐沼、红树林、珊瑚礁等生态系统。
专题3：生物海洋学与全球变化（主持人：孙军博士、陈炳章博士、何培民博士）
海洋生态系统对于全球气候变化、元素循环和对人类的资源供应等方面具有举足轻重的作用。本专题旨在探讨海洋生物（尤其是主导生物化学过程的微型生物）与环境因子的相互作用，从而帮助我们准确评估和预测全球变化（如海洋增温、海水酸化、缺氧等）对海洋生态系统的影响以及生态系统对全球变化的响应。
专题4：海洋污染与生态毒理（主持人：张效伟博士、洪海征博士）
人类活动的加剧致使环境污染物不断的通过陆源输出和大气沉降进入海洋环境，影响海洋生物正常的生理、代谢、繁殖和发育，进而降低海洋生物多样性，破坏海洋生态系统的组成、功能及服务。“海洋污染与生态毒理”专题旨在促进环境、海洋、生物以及化学等多学科交叉，探讨海洋污染物在海洋中的迁移、转化、生态毒理效应和相关机制。

专题研讨会2：「从源到汇」在时空上的特征：边缘海之沉积过程和沉积记录（主持人：刘祖乾博士）
该研讨会开展的主要目的有三：1、该研讨会将可以增进同行认识厦门大学新成立的地质海洋系的研究和教学之主题。该主题为：边缘海沉积过程与沉积记录、及其跨领域多学科交叉研究方法；2、该研讨会致力于吸引与会的该领域内国际知名的顶尖科学家来加盟该系，共同建设以国际化为特色的厦门大学地质海洋系。3、该研讨会同时为“第二届海峡两岸从源到汇研究伙伴科学研讨会”，其首届于2013年在同济大学成功召开。该研讨会是科学家们展示其多学科交叉的、沉积物“源与汇”相关的沉积物时空变化研究成果的重要平台。
Session 1: Physical oceanography and its coupling with chemical, biological and geological oceanography (Chairs: Dr. Peng Xiu, Dr. Peng Cheng)
As an integrated system, water movements, temperature and salinity structures, and material and energy exchange and transfer in the ocean not only are tightly connected to global change and human activities, but also interact with oceanic chemical, biological and geological processes in a variety of ways. Understanding these interactions is key to evaluating and discovering the underlying rules of the ocean's environmental change. This session will present and discuss recent new findings on physical processes in the coastal and open oceans, in particular, focusing on the dynamic interactions between physical, chemical, biological and geological processes in order to provide an integrated view on the variability of the ocean environment.
Session 2: Marine & estuarine biogeochemistry (Chairs: Dr. Eric DeCarlo, Dr. Xianghui Guo)
The World Ocean is an important component of the Earth system and is under the influence of both natural and anthropogenic stresses. Understanding the biogeochemical processes and mechanisms associated with these stresses and the role the ocean plays in regulating climate change is of global importance. This session will provide opportunities for the scientific community to exchange new ideas and discuss the latest information and advances in our understanding of marine biogeochemical processes at different spatial and temporal scales. This session invites submissions that discuss: (1) Carbon and other biogenic element cycles and related ocean biogeochemistry; (2) The influence of anthropogenic drivers and climate change on the marine environment and the biogeochemical response of the ocean; (3) Coupling of physical and biogeochemical forcing on the cycling of elements in the marine environment; (4) Isotope studies in marine biogeochemistry; (5) New techniques that study and help us understand oceanic biogeochemical processes. Studies in the open ocean, marginal seas, estuaries, salt marshes, mangroves, coral reefs and submarine groundwater discharge are all appropriate for this session and we encourage colleagues to submit their best and most recent work for presentation.
Session 3: Biological oceanography & global change (Chairs: Dr. Jun Sun, Dr. Bingzhang Chen, Dr. Peimin He)
The ocean ecosystem plays a vital role in global climate change, element cycling and providing ecological services. This session aims to discuss the interactions between marine organisms (particularly microorganisms playing the dominant role in biogeochemical cycles) and environmental drivers and to help us reliably evaluate and predict the impact of global change (e.g. ocean warming, acidification and deoxygenation) on marine ecosystems and the responses of ecosystems to global change.
Session 4: Marine pollution & ecotoxicology (Chairs: Dr. Xiaowei Zhang, Dr. Haizheng Hong)
As a consequence of increased anthropogenic activities, environmental pollutants enter the marine environment through terrestrial inputs and atmospheric deposition, subsequently affecting the physiology, development, reproduction and survival of marine organisms, and jeopardizing the bio-diversity, composition, functions and services of existing marine ecosystems. This session aims to facilitate interdisciplinary discussion among environmental scientists, chemists, biologists and oceanographers in order to integrate current knowledge on the fate and transport of pollutants in marine environments, assess their ecotoxicological effects on marine ecosystems, and elucidate the underlying toxic mechanisms.

Workshop 1: Observational and modeling research on the circulation in the South China Sea and the Luzon Strait (Chairs: Dr. Leo Oey, Dr. Xiao-Hua Wang, Dr. Guixing Chen, Dr. Yuwu Jiang, Dr. Jianyu Hu)
Recent decades have seen intense research in the South China Sea (SCS) with the number of published papers increasing to no less than ~50 journal publications per year according to an informal survey of the literature (by the session's chairs). This session solicits papers on a wide range of topics, covering (i) physical oceanography which includes water mass transformation and circulation, mixing by tides, winds (including typhoons) and inertial currents, the dynamic connection with the adjacent Pacific Ocean and other marginal seas and with Kuroshio intrusions and eddies through the Luzon Strait (LZS), basin scale and deep circulation and topographic effects and mixing, as well as boundary, continental shelf and near-shore processes; (ii) air-wave-sea coupled problems of summer and winter monsoons, of typhoon intensification and demise, and of how they relate to the physical circulation and mixing processes outlined above; (iii) biogeochemical processes as they directly relate to the ocean and atmospheric circulation and mixing; and (iv) observation and modeling of dynamics and sediment transport in estuaries and coastal seas and the sediment effect on biogeochemical processes. Observational and/or model demonstrations that result in the basic understanding of processes and how various coupled processes may impact the climate system are particularly encouraged.
Workshop 2: Source-to-Sink in Space and Time: Sediment Process and Sedimentary Record in Marginal Seas (Chair: Dr. James T. Liu)
This workshop aims to serve three purposes: Firstly, to promote the theme of the new Department of Geological Oceanography in Xiamen University, which is ‘Sediment Process and Sedimentary Record in Marginal Seas’ and its cross disciplinary-boundary approach. Secondly, we want to attract innovative scientists from all over the world to join this international department. Thirdly, this will be the continuation of the first workshop held in Tongji University in 2013 for the ‘Cross-strait Joint Partnership in S2S Research’. In this workshop, we provide a platform for presenting interdisciplinary findings in source-to-sink related sediment research in space and through time.
