Family of Linked Atlantic Model Experiments (FLAME)
Earth science; Physical oceanography
A framework for several numerical ocean modeling projects that study the physics and biogeochemistry of the Atlantic Ocean. The goal of FLAME is to perform a series of sensitivity ...
National Virtual Ocean Data System (NVODS)
Earth science; Physical oceanography
A framework for the distribution and analysis of oceanographic (and other) data from researchers and other data providers to intermediate and end users, including other ...
ROLAI2D lander
Earth science; Physical oceanography
A free vehicle benthic lander designed to characterize reaction at and transport across the sediment–water interface. ROLAI2 was designed for long duration deployments (i.e. ...
Rapid–Sampling Vertical Profiler (RSVP)
Earth science; Physical oceanography
A free–fall instrument tethered on a thin fiber optic cable designed for making repeated vertical profiles rapidly and continuously.
POGO
Earth science; Physical oceanography
A free–fall vertical velocity profiler. POGO is an acoustically–tracked dropsonde intended to measure the depth–averaged horizontal velocity from the sea surface to some ...
CAMBIOS
Earth science; Physical oceanography
A French program to monitor the Azores front and the flow of meddy across that region. This is to be done via acoustic tomography using three sound transceivers as well as with a ...
SURVOSTRAL
Earth science; Physical oceanography
A French project started in the austral summer of 1992/1993 for monitoring climate variability at high latitudes. The objective of the program is to monitor the seasonal and ...
