AtlantOS – Optimising and Enhancing the Integrated Atlantic Ocean Observing System
Start Date: 01 April 2015 – End Date: 30 September 2019
The vision of AtlantOS was to improve and innovate Atlantic observing by using the Framework of Ocean Observing to obtain an international, more sustainable, more efficient, more integrated, and fit-for-purpose system contributing to the Trans-Atlantic Research Alliance, the GEO (Group on Earth Observations) global initiative Blue Planet, and GOOS (Global Ocean Observing Systems). The AtlantOS initiative will have a long-lasting and sustainable contribution to the societal, economic and scientific benefit arising from this integrated approach, achieved by improving the extent, completeness, quality and ease of access to Atlantic Ocean data required by industries, product supplying agencies, scientist and citizens.
TelLab’s contribution:
The R&D Department were partners in Work Package 6 Cross-cutting issues and emerging networks. TelLab worked closely with the National Oceanography Centre (NOC), Southampton who is the leader of this Work Package.
The aim of this Work Package was to enhance Integrated Atlantic Ocean Observing System (IAOOS) capabilities to sample water and particles for biological and (meta)genomic analysis, through sensor development and TelLab’s main contribution was in the development of a marine sampler.
