In this document we have strived to compile ongoing and envisioned future activities of the Future Ocean. Although we have tried to keep this document short and focused in order to allow you to read through everything that happened, we have failed to keep it the volume we had envisioned – there is just too much going on. We ne- vertheless hope that you will be able to read through some of our activities, share your ideas and suggestions with us, and maybe get some inspiration for your own activities. In this way we hope to experience a mutually interesting meeting for all of us in September in Kiel. We sincerely look forward to your visit.
