1. INVITATION Zooplankton as Indicators of Climate Change : A Korea-France Bilateral Research Cooperation Date : 25 May, 2007 Venue: National Fisheries Research & Development Institute INVITATION WORD The global warming triggers increase of sea water temperature and iceberg melting, and causes disturbance of marine ecosystem, then our lives. From this year our institute has engaged in a bilateral cooperation with France with respect to the use of zooplankton as indicators of the climate change in the North Pacific and North Atlantic. In line with this engagement, we organize a symposium which will help us in understanding the climate change and its trigger, and preparing the strategy corresponding to it for our safety and future. I sincerely invite all of you to attend this symposium that will yield fruitful results and will be a good foundation for making our strategies regarding climate change and its impacts on marine ecosystem. May, 2007 President of National Fisheries Research and Development Institute Deok Bae PARK
