Each digital issue, scheduled for publishing in March, June, and September 2023, will shine a multimedia spotlight on trending topics of oceanography and give readers an exclusive, in-depth perspective on the expanding field of applied marine science and ocean research.
The announcement kicks off a milestone year for ECO Magazine, 2023 being the publication’s tenth year in circulation, and follows several editorial changes in late 2022.
“Our decision to launch the Deep Dive series builds on ECO Magazine’s established tradition of producing special editions that seek to highlight and explore the most topical subjects from the world of applied marine science,” said editor Haley McQueen. “ECO Magazine’s mission with the Deep Dive series is to unite marine science experts from across the globe—individuals and organizations alike—dedicated to expanding the understanding and reach of modern-day oceanography as a multidisciplinary field of research, so naturally we are delighted to work with internationally renowned institutions like the Schmidt Ocean Institute and the NOC in this exciting project.”
“Over the last ten years ECO Magazine has consistently produced high-quality articles on marine science, technology, exploration, and the environment. We are honored to be collaborating with ECO Magazine and NOC on this special Deep Dive series that will delve into the latest knowledge in ocean observation, marine environmental research, and deep-sea exploration—including areas of science that we look forward to supporting over the next few years on our newly refit 110 meter global-class research vessel,” said Schmidt Ocean Institute executive director, Dr. Jyotika Virmani.
