Kiel Marine Science (KMS) is the Center for Interdisciplinary Marine Science at Kiel University. KMS performs a central coordinating role for all researchers in natural sciences, the humanities, and social sciences whose work concerns oceans, coasts, and their interaction with humanity. In both research and teaching, associated research groups have expertise in fields such as climate research, coastal research, physical chemistry, botany, microbiology, mathematics, informatics, economics, law, and social science. Together with stakeholders outside of academia, KMS works to develop options for the conservation and sustainable use of the seas and coasts from a global and transdisciplinary perspective. Altogether, KMS is comprised of 50 research groups from seven faculties and 18 research institutes.
