Marine Research and Innovation Strategy
This report is one of a series prepared at the request of the Marine Institute as a contribution to the development
of a comprehensive National Marine Research and Innovative Strategy (2006-2012). This strategy being prepared
through the course of 2005 will identify the key actions needed to provide sustainable growth and development
opportunites that will contribute to socio-economic progress and the protection of the marine environment. This
report is designed to identify climate-induced impacts, and necessary related actions, that Foresight/Stateholder
groups will have to take into account in preparing future R&D plans and programmes.
