Marine fisheries and living resources are vital to sustaining the Nation’s economy, employment and food security. Animal telemetry is the science of elucidating the movements and behavior of animals as ...

Deployment of an Operational System for Acquiring and Disseminating Oceanographic and Behavioral Data Telemetered from Tagged SharksAnimal-borne sensors can be an effective method for collecting oceanographic data and, in certain ...

In situ sensors are being deployed at Hog Reef in Bermuda by scientists from Scripps Inst. of Oceanography and the University of Montana. The sensors measure alkalinity, a parameter that ...

Large “brown tide” events, where large mats of sargassum inundate coastal areas, are increasing in frequency and extent in the U.S. Caribbean. Preliminary data collected by CARICOOS suggests that these ...

This project will deploy low-cost, in-lake observing platforms capable of capturing the full wave spectrum in real-time. Deployments will initially focus on the Great Lakes, but are ultimately scalable to ...

The Ocean Discovery League will develop a deep-diving, low-cost Deep Ocean Research & Imaging System (DORIS) to lower the financial and technical barriers to deep-sea exploration and research. DORIS is ...

This project will develop and implement robust real-time monitoring of harmful algal blooms via satellite-based telemetry. Monitoring phytoplankton communities offshore presents a challenge in terms of power and connectivity. With ...

This project will transition the data ingestion and management pipelines used by the U.S. IOOS Regional Associations NERACOOS and MARACOOS, and the IOOS GliderDAC into a common cyberinfrastructure. This new ...

Shellfish play a vital role in the environment, culture, and economy in many U.S. coastal communities. The shellfish aquaculture community is the largest segment of marine aquaculture in the United ...

Gliders are a unique and important observing system used to serve a variety of subsurface observing missions. Gliders can monitor water currents, temperature, tagged animals and conditions that reveal effects ...
