"Dong Fang Hong 2", a Vessel of OUC used for comprehensive marine survey, is 96 meters long and 15 meters wide. The GRT3235 vessel with a draught of 5.5 meters can be used for comprehensive and systematic research in multi-disciplines including hydrology, meteorology, physics, chemistry, biology, geology and geophysics as well as for students’ fieldwork at the sea. “Dong Fang Hong 2” is one of the most advanced vessels for comprehensive marine investigation in China.
With the help of “Dong Fang Hong 2”, OUC has successively conducted joint research activities with the U.S.A., Candan , France, Japan and South Korea in the waters of Yellow Sea， Bohai Sea and East China Sea and successfully accomplished cooperative research programs such as “Joint Investigation for Sino-Japan Subtropical Circulation”, “Sino-German Research for Sustainable Development of Ecological System Dynamics and Biological Resources at Bohai Sea”, “Sino-British Joint Testing of Apparatus”, “Sino-American Cooperative Survey for Change of Some Routes at the Offshore in Shanghai”, and “Investigation of Environmental Geology in Northwest Pacific Ocean",etc.
“Dong Fang Hong 2” is also commissioned by Ocean University of China and other universities to be used for the teaching and training of the student in marine-related sciences.
