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 these funds, the team will implement a new data management model, as well as operationalize the pairing of a sampling bot (IFCB) with an autonomous surface vehicle that provides both power and connectivity within the Northeast HAB Observing Network.
