Understanding how an animal utilises its surroundings requires its movements through space to be described accurately. Satellite telemetry is the only means of acquiring movement data for many species however data are ...

The “Colombian Oceanographic Data and Information Coordination Committee” (CTN Diocean, by its initials in Spanish) was created by Resolution No. 005/2015 of the Colombian Ocean Commission (CCO, by its initials in Spanish), ...

The increasing need for continuous monitoring of the world oceans has stimulated the development of a range of autonomous sampling platforms. One novel addition to these approaches is a small, relatively inexpensive ...

The software routines for data sampling and processing that are implemented on-board telemetry devices (tags) called Conductivity-Temperature-Depth Satellite Relay Data Loggers (CTD-SRDLs) enable the simultaneous collection ...

While the observation of the open ocean is well achieved by automated ocean measurement instruments, coastal and shelf seas suffer the lack of sub-surface collection platforms. Commercial fishing gear such as bottom ...

This document provides guidance on best practice for in-situmeasurem ent of underwater sound, for processing the data, and for reporting the measurements using appropriate metrics . Measured noise levels are sometimes ...

This manual establishes the guidelines for manage the Sea Bird Electronics profiler (CTD SBE 19 PLUS), as well the procedures for the operation this oceanographic instrument and process the collected data in the oceanographic ...

All monitoring locations and hydrophone systems have unique features that affect the ability to monitor ambient noise levels accurately. As anthropogenic underwater noise effects on marine species becomes increasing important ...

The Ski-Monkey III benthic camera system is a passive, towed camera mounted on a squat, stainless steel frame, resting on two 10 cm wide skis. It consists of an underwater module, containing pressure housings that are ...

A well designed observing network is vital to improve our understanding of the oceans and to obtain better predictions of the future. As autonomous marine technology develops, the potential for deploying large autonomous ...
