This 5-day international onsite training equips early career ocean professionals with the practical knowledge and technical competencies required to assess coastal water quality and monitor environmental conditions in small island ecosystems. Building on the IOC-UNESCO frameworks for ocean observing and capacity development, the course bridges standardized coastal monitoring methodologies with field-based environmental assessment in the contrasting ecosystems of Tidung Besar and Tidung Kecil, exploring how integrated physical and chemical water quality observations, laboratory nutrient analysis, and ecosystem-based interpretation are applied using CTD multiparameter sensors, Niskin bottle sampling, UV-Vis spectrophotometry, and nutrient analyzer techniques to support evidence-based coastal management.
