is a group of researchers at Universiti Malaya (UM) who enjoy nothing more than exploring the seagrass meadows, coral reefs and mangroves of Malaysia. If you are curious about these marine habitats, want to pick up advanced field ecology and marine geography methods, and love being stranded on tropical islands for work, feel free to get in touch with us.

Our Purpose |
|
We study the functional role of seagrass meadows and coral reefs in the South China Sea, and how these habitats respond to local stress and global change impacts. Team Sea Habitats mentors and trains students in academic research, with a strong emphasis on marine field techniques. We work closely with environmental NGOs, corporations, and government agencies looking to understand the marine environment for their specific needs.
|
|
Team Sea Habitats is based at the Physical Geography Laboratory, UM. Team members are affiliated with a range of institutions at UM, including the Department of Geography, the Institute of Ocean and Earth Sciences, and the Institute of Biological Sciences.
