Funded Activity Summary

An autonomous sea state monitoring system for Australia's research fleet. The project will deliver an innovative shipborne multi-camera infrastructure for autonomous monitoring of physical, thermodynamical and biogeochemical properties of the ocean surface. The infrastructure will empower systematic measurements of the remote and under-sampled Southern Ocean, including properties that are currently not monitored or rely on visual observations only. Unprecedented databases of ocean waves, surface currents, surface temperature, sea ice characteristics and biological properties are expected, which will support development of superior model capabilities to represent interactive processes, advancements of climate models and domestic and international responses to climate change.
