2014年东印度洋综合科学考察航次由中国科学院南海海洋研究所"实验1"科考船执行。此次东印度洋航次预计将于2014 年3 月底开航，计算航行距离为9000 海浬，共设大面站73个，利用海洋温盐、海流、海表水文观测、采水、生物地质拖网、地质表层柱状采样等各种手段对东印度洋海区海洋动力、海洋大气相互作用、环境与生态过程的区域响应。印度洋与南海密切相关，它的海洋气象动力过程对南海海洋过程影响深远，通过印度洋航次对东印度洋的海洋环境因素进行调查研究南海海洋生态环境因素的变化，对南海经济与社会协调、可持续发展与决策提供科学依据。通过印度洋综合考察航次，加强印度洋海洋现场数据的长期积累，促进南海海洋研究与周边海域研究相结合，对我国在海洋研究的长远发展具有战略性意义

The comprehensive investigation of Eastern Indian Ocean in 2014 will be carried out by SHIYAN 1 vessel owened by South China Sea Institute of Oceanology, Chinese Academy of Sicences. The Experiment will begin in later Mar. 2014, 9000 miles navigation. During the experiment, data records will be collected at 73 CTD casting Stations, which will cover hydroology, biology, geology and marine ecosystemology. Our scientific issues include the oceanic dynamics, air-sea interaction , the regional response of the envioronmental and bi-geo-chemical process. the Indian Ocean is Tightly related to the South China sea, its' oceanic and meterologic dynamics strongly affect the variability of the oceanic process in South China Sea. A Continued and well arranged experiment project will put an prolonged effection on the longterm development of the oceanologic research in China.
