| Summary: | No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author. A recent report ‘OceanScope’ (see link to report below) outlines in detail a proposed partnership with the global shipping industry to create a framework for expanded observation of the global water column. The partnership would also establish a framework to stimulate the development of novel sensors and instruments optimized for use on merchant marine vessels. To motivate and achieve the above requires scalability of operations that leads to improved coverage of the ocean on the one hand, and economic incentives on the other for investing in such initiatives. The initial phase of OceanScope would focus on the North Atlantic. Recent findings from vessels operating acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCP) will serve to illustrate the power of repeat sampling. ... |
