Studie
Coastal Zone Research for value creation and diversity
The Research Council of Norway appointed a working group for the period 15.1.03 - 30.6.03, giving it the task of drawing up a planning document for coastal zone research. The background for this study was the initiative taken by the Research Council to promote the coastal zone as an important component of efforts in marine research, as well as submissions from a number of relevant professional and scientific bodies. As one of its points of departure, the working group has based its work on inputs received from research institutions in response to an invitation extended by the Research Council.
