The Coastal and Ocean Management Institute (COMI) was established in Oct. 2005, as a special initiative by Xiamen University to contribute to human resource needs as well as to promote interdisciplinary and cross-boundary research in coastal and ocean management. COMI has the added advantage of the availability of relevant multidisciplinary expertise within the university system, as well as several national and provincial oceanographic and fisheries research institutions located nearby.
