Mission: Knowing the Seas to safeguard our future The Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research (or NIOZ Sea Research), is the national oceanographic institute and the Netherlands’ centre of expertise for ocean, sea and coast. We advance fundamental understanding of marine systems, the way they change, the role they play in climate and biodiversity, and how they may provide sustainable solutions to society in the future. Our Vision: Sustainable seas In these crucial decades for the planet, NIOZ, with its unique blend of science and seagoing operations, plays an important role in advancing our fundamental understanding of changes in marine processes, the stability of marine systems, possible tipping points and potential solutions to address the big societal questions that are posed by the climate and biodiversity crises. Our Science: Sea research from climate to biodiversity The overarching research questions at NIOZ are related to understanding how marine systems work, how they are changing due to anthropogenic and natural impacts, and what benefits can be obtained from them in a sustainable manner. Our Tools: Novel ships, data and instruments We strive for scientific excellence in our research and provide the Netherlands’ marine scientific community with state-of-the-art research vessels and equipment and maintain strong international collaborations. Our People: Freedom to succeed NIOZ follows the NWO strategy. We want to be a transparent institute with a healthy working climate and an inclusive culture, where people from diverse backgrounds and gender bring their talents and further develop these talents. We aim for inclusive decision-making processes and expect our leadership to show visible commitment, awareness of bias, and cultural intelligence. Core values: responsibility to engage Our core values are collaboration, independence and openness, sustainability, responsibility and accountability.
