Aim of the workshop

Okinawa, coral rich region in Japan, is the final port of call for the Tara Pacific Japan leg in 2017. In closing of the Japan leg in 2017, the workshop is planned as a scientific discussion meeting with researchers in Okinawa, where coral science is much active. We hope that this workshop gives a nice opportunity for cultivating mutual friendships among researchers from Tara expeditions, Univ. of Ryukyus and other institutes in Okinawa.
