The Open Science Promotion Section was established in 2022, with the aim of managing and releasing various data that were collected through atmospheric and oceanic observations and numerical modeling, and leading to new research developments. In collaboration with the Cooperative Research Promotion Section and laboratories within the institute, we are promoting data collection, quality control, archiving, and publication, as well as constructing and publishing ocean DNA maps under the Ocean DNA Project, which is being undertaken by the entire institute.

Research Vessel Observation Database
In order to promote open science and the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science, the observational data acquired in the framework of the joint use of research vessels are being made publicly available in accordance with the FAIR Principles on Data.
Otsuchi-Bay Observation Database
The Otsuchi Coastal Research Center of Atmosphere and Ocean Research Institute, the University of Tokyo, owns small research vessels as research facility available for visiting marine scientists via the Cooperative Research Promotion Program. In this database, data mainly from CTD observations in Otsuchi Bay are open as a part of the cooperative research.
