Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs)
AUVs are cutting-edge oceanography tools that can autonomously collect data on ocean temperature, salinity, and currents. They are equipped with sensors and can be programmed to follow specific paths to gather data in remote or hazardous areas.
Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs)
ROVs are advanced tools used for exploring the deep ocean and collecting samples or conducting experiments. They are controlled by operators on the surface and are equipped with cameras, sensors, and manipulator arms for precise data collection and analysis.
Satellite Remote Sensing
Satellite remote sensing technology allows for the monitoring of large-scale ocean phenomena such as sea surface temperature, ocean color, and sea level. This data is collected from space-based sensors and provides valuable insights into global ocean processes.
Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCPs)
ADCPs are instruments used to measure ocean currents and water column properties using sound waves. They are mounted on ships or moorings and provide high-resolution data on ocean circulation patterns and dynamics.
