The @NSF has awarded a $53 million grant to create a world-wide fleet of robotic floats to monitor ocean health.
A consortium of institutions @MBARI_news @UW @Scripps_Ocean @WHOI @Princeton will build a global network of chemical and biological sensors: mbari.co/35Jx5bx

Important messaging on today's @GO_BGC webinar - USE IT OR LOSE IT! Global coverage, open data, shared tools & resources, capacity bldg workshops & hackathons! BTW, do you know how to cite @bgc_argo data? Learn more at argo.ucsd.edu/data/acknowled… and go-bgc.org/data/citing-go-bg…
🌊 Interested in ocean chlorophyll? A new paper by Long et al. explores the relationship between chlorophyll, measured by BGC-Argo floats and by ocean color satellites.
Read the @NatureComms paper: nature.com/articles/s43247-0…
We are excited that @Scripps_Ocean will lead the next phase of SOCCOM! Together, SOCCOM and GO-BGC have transformed how we monitor and understand ocean health.
We are excited to announce that the new phase of SOCCOM has been funded by the @NSF and @NOAA for three more years of operation under the direction of @Scripps_Ocean oceanographer Lynne Talley: scripps.ucsd.edu/news/scripp…

Here's a fantastic opportunity to lead a research program on the role of #Antarctica and the Southern Ocean in the global climate system.
We're seeking a 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿 for the AAPP, based at @UTAS_ in Hobart.
Applications close 15 Sept ➡️ aappartnership.org.au/vacanc…

A new study from @MBARI_News researchers and their collaborators using SOCCOM float data has revealed that storms trigger the release of carbon dioxide from the ocean. This work will help improve models used for forecasting our changing climate.

The world’s first open-ocean study to use robotic floats and sediment traps to track nearly a million tonnes of carbon flowing from the surface to the deep of the Southern Ocean each year.

When looking at how heat is moved across the planet, the ocean plays a big role. That’s because the ocean acts like a global conveyor belt moving heat around the globe. That heat, and where it goes, impacts the global climate.

The #ExOIS program was presented at the annual meeting of the @SOCCOMProject this week. Great discussions about how @GO_BGC can help with #MRV for #mCDR. Thank you Mark Wells for presenting!

Day 4 of #mbariearth2024 Not many photos today as we spent the time working on lessons based on the presentations from this week. Excited for our lesson, LEGO build a float! Lesson presentations tomorrow and I’m excited to hear what others created. @globalocean_bgc @MBARI_News

Day 2 of #mbariearth2024 More amazing presentations (Ocean Acidification and Biogeochemistry) and visited the UW Float lab. Decorated a float (I am not an artist but I added some flair). Finished the day with teacher presentations and the 5E model. @globalocean_bgc @MBARI_News

Day 3 #mbariearth2024 presentations on phytoplankton (produce about half of the earth’s oxygen) and a new game, FathomVerse, tag creatures in over 300,000 hrs of video footage taken from the ocean. Then to Pikes Market and ferry to Bainbridge Island. @globalocean_bgc @MBARI_News
Educators from across the country and the world are coming together at the @UW this week to learn about cutting-edge research and data from the GO-BGC array of profiling floats in the @MBARI_News EARTH workshop for educators.

Measuring 🌡️and 🧂to depths of 6 km, Deep Argo floats will revolutionise #oceanography in the abyss. Along with 15 floats from our partners @IMOS_AUS and @CSIRO, we're proud to add 10 more towards the global array target of 1,200 Deep Argo floats.
