The Argo program is the largest ocean climate monitoring system in the world, providing continuous observations of key ocean parameters through a global array of autonomous profiling floats. In 2018, RBR joined the program’s pilot project to diversify the floats’ CTD sensor technology, which is crucial to avoiding single points of failure. RBR introduced the RBRargo3 C.T.D as a low-power, high-accuracy alternative that is … Read More about RBR provides CTDs and sensors for the Argo program
Observing ocean health: RBR, Dalhousie and DFO collaborate to develop new biogeochemical sensors
The ocean’s contribution to climate change may not be as visible as that of the atmosphere, but in lock-step with the atmosphere, the ocean is changing. The physical dynamics of its currents and temperature are changing, as well as its chemical and biological aspects; its biogeochemistry. Knowing the ocean’s biogeochemistry, including ecosystem health and the ocean’s ability to absorb carbon, … Read More about Observing ocean health: RBR, Dalhousie and DFO collaborate to develop new biogeochemical sensors
