Abstract

In this paper, we prove that for a fibration $f : X \to Z$ from a smooth projective $3$-fold to a smooth projective curve, over an algebraically closed field $k$ with $\mathrm{char}k = p \gt 5$, if the geometric generic fiber $X_{\overline{\eta}}$ is smooth, then subadditivity of Kodaira dimensions holds, i.e.\[\kappa (X) \geq \kappa (X_{\overline{\eta}}) + \kappa (Z) \; \textrm{.}\]
