New Technologies to Study the Ocean - Advances in Observations, Robotics, and Imaging

Explore cutting-edge technologies revolutionizing ocean research in this 45-minute press workshop from the Ocean Sciences Meeting 2018. Discover how scientists are advancing ocean observations, robotics, machine learning, and visualization techniques. Learn about next-generation Argo floats capable of descending to 6,000-meter depths, robotic plankton for measuring small-scale environmental processes, and innovative imaging technologies creating 3D coral reef maps. Gain insights from experts at Scripps Institution of Oceanography on topics including deep-sea exploration, plankton classification, underwater visualization, and coral reef monitoring. Understand the impact of these transformative technologies on marine science, climate change research, and the future of ocean conservation efforts.
