Gulf of Oman symposium. Join us in exploring the fascinating marine ecosystems of the Gulf of Oman, from vibrant coral reefs and seagrass meadows to productive mangrove forests. Learn how these unique habitats support biodiversity, sustain fisheries, protect coastlines, and contribute to climate regulation. Through presentations, discussions, and knowledge exchange, you will explore the ecology of marine plants and animals, their adaptations to challenging environments, and the impacts of climate change, tropical cyclones, and conservation initiatives on coastal ecosystems. This symposium offers an engaging opportunity to collaborate in the stewardship of one of the region's most valuable natural resources.
