Some researchers who participate of Milenio group, such as oceanographers of Universidad Cat\u00f3lica de Valpara\u00edso, leaded by Mr. Hormaz\u00e1bal, embarked upon Abate Molina, in order to determine the characteristics of the ecosystems associated with the seamounts near Juan Fern\u00e1ndez archipelago.\u201d <\/span><\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Monday 23, opening ceremony of Instituto Milenio de Oceanograf\u00eda was held at Art Gallery of Universidad de Concepci\u00f3n.
