Oceanology Asia 2025 will be held from October 22 to 24, 2025, at the Shanghai Convention & Exhibition Center of International Sourcing. The forum will revolve around three core directions: "Frontier Technology × Deep-sea Application × Green Development", setting up eight topic modules, focusing on current hotspots, difficulties, and breakthroughs in the frontier. We sincerely invite every expert, scholar, and technical leader with ideas, research, and solutions to participate together and jointly build a "dialogue field for the integrated development of marine science and technology".

The Eight Great Topics
1.Navigation and Positioning
1) How can positioning systems ensure stability in complex sea conditions and extreme weather?
2) How can the "multi-source fusion" positioning system achieve seamless connection across land, sea and air domains?
3) How can underwater navigation and positioning achieve safe and reliable capabilities on a global scale?
2. Marine Observation and Measurement
1) How can real-time dynamic monitoring of multiple parameters such as ocean temperature, salinity and currents be achieved?
2) How can marine surveying and mapping address the gap of large-scale high-resolution data in the deep sea?
3) What are the key links in the digital ocean floor map project of "perceiving with one map"?
3. Underwater robots/unmanned vehicles
1)How can we break through the endurance bottleneck and underwater communication barriers of underwater robots?
2) How will the "multi-machine collaborative operation" system rewrite the efficiency of deep-sea operations?
3) Is it possible for future underwater operations to be "fully autonomous and zero intervention"?
4. Marine New Energy
1)Do marine wind energy, tidal energy, wave energy, etc. have the ability to generate electricity stably over the long term?
2) Is "blue carbon" expected to become a strategic support sector for the marine energy economy?
3) Which regions have the potential to be the first to achieve commercial application of marine new energy?
5. Marine mineral development
1) How can deep-sea mining achieve "minimum disturbance" in ecologically sensitive sea areas?
2) What are the technical and legal standard gaps in China's marine mineral development?
3) What are the core variables for cost control in the extraction of resources such as polymetallic nodules?
6. Artificial Intelligence and Marine Information Communication Technology
1) How can deep-sea mining achieve "minimum disturbance" in ecologically sensitive sea areas?
2) What are the gaps in technology and legal standards for the development of marine mineral resources in China?
3) What are the core variables for cost control in the extraction of resources such as polymetallic nodules?
7. Marine scientific research
1) How can marine observation achieve the capability of continuous acquisition of all elements in all spaces and at all times in the complex environment of the deep and far sea?
2) How can marine scientific research technologies upgrade from "point-based collection" to "systematic perception", and achieve intelligent, platform-based and systematic evolution?
8. Domestic marine instruments and equipment set sail (OA TALK interview format)
1)Can domestic marine instruments meet the international mainstream scientific research and industrial application standards in terms of accuracy, stability and environmental adaptability?
2) In the face of the international high-end equipment market, how can domestic brands break through technological barriers and the threshold of trust to establish global competitiveness?
3) In international project cooperation and export promotion, what are the key challenges in terms of policies, standards and channels that domestic equipment faces when going global?
Our invitation is extended to experts and scholars with profound academic attainments, authoritative research achievements, and significant academic influence, such as professors and researchers. We also welcome seasoned scientific and technological workers who have long been dedicated to key technology fields such as marine engineering, intelligent equipment, polar exploration, and deep-sea resources. Additionally, we are looking for frontier explorers in science and technology who focus on the cross-border integration of "ocean + technology" and "ocean + industry", and possess systematic cognition and application promotion capabilities.
