An organization dedicated to marine research
and exploration...
Marine researchers start
with a passion for the ocean environment. This is followed by questions---
questions about the basic science of the marine environment. How
do the elements of an ocean system work? How do the pieces fit
together? What are the relationships between the physical and biological
elements of the system? As anthropogenic factors play an increasing
role in the functioning of marine systems, applied questions begin
to emerge. How are ecosystem structures and fishery take quotas
related? How is climate change influencing ocean chemistry? What
is the relationship between fishery management and climate change;
how do these variables interact to influence community structure
and population composition? The more we learn about the marine
environment, more questions—critically important
questions---emerge.
Norseman Maritime Charters was founded with the specific
goal of proving a research and exploration platform to serve marine
scientists as they seek to answer their questions. Norseman Maritime
Charters has developed a research support strategy that brings
together highly trained and experienced crews, with vessels designed
to meet the demands and challenging conditions of the Alaskan marine
environment. We understand the needs of agency, academic, and industry
researchers, and have created an organization to meet those needs.
At the heart of Norseman Maritime Charters is an owner-operator
organization dedicated to marine research and exploration. Importantly,
we are not a one-size fits all operation, but one where the owners
and captains will work directly with you to implement your research
plan. We define success as a research plan that accomplishes its mission,
on time, on budget. As you seek the expertise and reliability to shape
your next project, we hope you will contact Norseman Maritime Charters.
