What are marine resources?

Marine resources refer to real organisms, such as aquatic organisms and microorganisms related to marine resources, and useful information derived from their utilization.

Applications

Basic research for material preservation and securing
Industrial use as raw resources for product development
Research and development of technologies to increase production output

Why is research and industrial development of marine resources important?

  • The importance of biological sovereignty has increased following the adoption of the Nagoya Protocol in 2014.
  • Developing high-value resources and fostering industries based on marine biological resources is essential.
  • Overexploitation of resources and changes in coastal environments have led to the depletion of marine biological resources.
  • There is a need for research and technology development to restore and manage marine biological resources.

Efforts should be made to explore marine genetic resources, systematize information, and innovate marine technologies to prepare for the future.

Research cases on marine biological resources

Development of cosmetics using marine-derived microorganisms
  • Cosmetics with excellent skin improvement properties developed from functional substances derived from microorganisms found in red sea cucumbers, with plans for overseas export
  • Development of aquaculture technology for the restoration of endangered marine species
    • Efforts to secure genetic resources of endangered Laminaria japonica and develop aquaculture technologies using "glass tube seedling cultivation techniques," building a foundation for sustainable aquaculture industrialization

Research and technological efforts for the conservation of marine resources depleted by climate change and sustainable development of the fisheries industry
