A new edition on the scientific research fleet of the 21st century

The publishing house of the Scientific Research Center of the Russian Federation "All–Russian Research Institute of Fisheries and Oceanography" (VNIRO) presents the monograph "Marine vessels for fishing research in the 21st century (2001-2025)" - a fundamental work summarizing the experience of creating modern research vessels.
 
The monograph is based on a comprehensive analysis of the development of the research fleet over the past quarter century. Special attention is paid to relevant areas in the design of specialized vessels of a new generation, equipped with innovative electric propulsion systems and reduced noise characteristics.
 
A key section of the paper is devoted to the study of more than 50 modern research vessels built since 2000. Their design features, scientific equipment and the possibilities of conducting comprehensive studies of marine ecosystems are considered in detail.
 
The practical significance of the monograph lies in the systematization of advanced technical solutions in the field of deck laboratory complexes, sonar equipment and trawl-acoustic survey systems. The materials are based on the results of VNIRO's long-term research on the renewal of the research fleet.
 
The work is a valuable source of information about the current state and prospects for the development of marine research shipbuilding, reflecting the key areas of industry development in the context of global trends.
