State-of-the-art underwater robots to play crucial role
The National Oceanography Centre and the Met Office are collaborating to gather data which will improve the accuracy of weather forecasting and generate a better analyses of the state of the North Sea.
Cutting-edge underwater gliders, operated by engineers from National Oceanography Centre (NOC), navigate through the North Sea taking measurements, such as salinity and temperature, which are delivered to the Met Office in near real-time. The project, which will operate for the next three years
