During his visit, Dr. Landeros Ayala discussed opportunities for collaboration between the AIR Centre and UNAM, highlighting shared research interests in ocean observation, climate change, and Sargassum monitoring. "We have very good opportunities to collaborate, to share knowledge, to have joint projects at UNAM," he noted. "There are very good researchers working on AIR Centre areas. So we can share experiences in those areas and put together all the efforts to contribute not only between the two countries, but also regionally."
