The “Helmholtz School for Marine Data Science” (MarDATA) will define and educate a new type of “marine data scientist” by introducing and incorporating researchers from computer sciences and mathematics into ocean sciences, who will cover a broad range of expertise from supercomputing and modelling, (bio)informatics, robotics to statistics and big data methodologies. Researchers from Germany’s leading institutes for marine research, GEOMAR and AWI, will join forces with information & data science specialists from their respective partner universities in Kiel and Bremen to educate and supervise doctoral candidates in this endeavour. The education in joint block courses, international summer schools and colloquia will go beyond a single discipline towards genuine scientific insight into and create a more comprehensive treatment of marine data.
