Abstract
- With the draining of land resources, and rising new economic and resources expansionism, finding a new and yet to be developed treasure is often a fierce and competitive challenge among many nations. This is especially true for Korea confronted with its urgent needs to find new resources and strategy to maintain the current pace of societal demand and economic development in this often impatient and rapidly progressing world. The ocean world in the South Pacific provides potentials to quench both orders with promises of new treasures of living and ecosystem resources such as new fisheries and new bioactive products as well as providing alternative aesthetic, recreational resources and critical informations on various societal problems such as extreme weather conditions and early warning of the consequences resulting from global environmental changes.
