CTG participating in UK Integrated Marine Observing Network workshop hosted by PML
26/11/2012 Chelsea Technologies Group Ltd
Chelsea Technologies Group is delighted to be participating in The UK Integrated Marine Observing Network (UK-IMON) workshop hosted by PML on 27-28 November 2012.The aim of the UK-IMON initiative is to ensure that a national marine observatory is in place to improve the evidence base for future assessments of environmental status, using the most cost-effective technologies available to the UK marine science community. The group will be exploring adding value to existing key monitoring sites.
Justin Dunning will be on hand to explain Chelsea's range of multi-parameter sensors & systems for monitoring the physical, optical & biological oceanographic environment. Parameters include temperature, conductivity, depth, Chlorophyll a, Cyanobacteria, hydrocarbons, turbidity, transmission, fluorescence & bioluminescence.
The sensors can be deployed from a range of platforms including moorings, towed bodies, AUV, gliders and floats transmitting data in real-time or storing for later retrieval.
The workshop has been set up in order to identify the user-requirements for marine science and ascertain how to improve the efficiency and quality of information from moorings throughout the UK. The workshop will focus on biological and biogeochemical measurements taking into consideration all measurements for the development of the network such as buoyancy gliders, wave glides and floats.
