Ocean Sciences Meeting 2026

Join the global ocean science community at OSM26, to be held in Glasgow, Scotland, where leading researchers, industry practitioners, policymakers, and innovators will converge to share cutting-edge discoveries and drive forward solutions for sustainable ocean futures.

As the flagship conference for ocean sciences, OSM26 offers unparalleled opportunities for collaboration, knowledge exchange, and networking across diverse fields—from marine ecosystems and climate change impacts to technology, policy, and sustainability. With strong ties to the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (2021–2030), the meeting emphasizes real-world impact and collective action in response to the climate crisis.

Glasgow’s host commitment to sustainability is reflected in its Net Zero events policies, waste reduction goals, and local sourcing practices—making it a fitting backdrop for a gathering focused on the future of our oceans.
