This presentation will describe experiences learned from use of Gothenburg University benthic chamber landers during more than 300 deployments/1000 incubations in water depths from 5 to 5600 m. Measurements of different solutes/contaminants will be presented as well as manipulative injection experiments to study the N-cycle, phosphate retention and the effects of sediment re-suspension. Methods to increase the data quality will also be discussed.

Rustom Jehangir, Founder of Blue Robotics, will discuss the importance of low-cost marine robotics for ocean restoration and conservation efforts and the communal innovation allowing us to accomplish goals we have not been able to before.
The goal of this U.S. DOE R&D project is to conduct an ocean pilot of a scaled wave energy converter. The fully submerged system is converting the reciprocating motion of a buoyant body, driven by ocean waves, into electrical energy and supplied back to shore via a temporary cable landing on the Scripps pier. During the testing period from August 2021 to February 2022, CalWave is offering opportunities to add research to our wave demonstration campaign. Projects can include: Sensor testing, instrumentation to be added to device or alongside deployment e.g. on anchors or other, powering of sensors using a wave energy device, demonstration/testing of AUV charging using CalWave’s wave energy converter as a power source, energy storage and communications unit e.g. for a remote fully autonomous instrumentation station that could include a fully resident AUV.

Greg Johnson, President of RBR
RBR’s sensor technology enables advancements in the oceanographic measurement capabilities of autonomous platforms and vehicles. High accuracy, low power, and customized hardware configurations have allowed ocean scientists and system integrators to create new systems, measure longer, and get access to real-time data.
This technical presentation will describe RBR’s latest innovations in CTD and data collection technology for autonomous platforms. We will also highlight collaborative projects with oceanographers and…
This webinar will provide a brief overview of Onset’s HOBO water quality and depth data loggers and data access options. We will discuss three case studies: Billion Oyster Project; Buzzards Bay Water Quality; Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences CREOL. The webinar is planned to allow for an open discussion with Andrew Thomson and Paul Gannett on our products and applications.
Algal blooms are typically characterized during peak bloom conditions via sample collection and lab analyses utilizing High Pressure Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), microscopy, PCR and DNA sequencing, or other techniques all of which can be tedious, costly, and time consuming.
