Data Interoperability Between Elements of the Global Ocean Observing System

Biologging in the Global Ocean Observing System

Miniature electronic data recorders and transmitters have revolutionized the way we study animals over the past decades, particularly marine animals at sea. But, very recently, animal-borne instruments have also been designed and implemented that provide in situ hydrographic data from parts of the oceans where little or no other data are currently available (even from beneath the ice in polar r...

the relationship between field-related cognitive styles and global reading comprehension of hypertext

this study investigates the relationship between field-related cognitive styles and global reading comprehension of hypertext. technically, field dependency is prevailing dominance of field on perception of parts, while global comprehension is skim-like reading to grasp the general content. in this research project, 60 senior and junior students of arak university majoring in english literature...

Assessing the footprint of a regional ocean observing system

l rights reserved. network is also enhanced by a network of tide gauges around Australia that is managed by the National Tidal Centre (www.bom.gov.au/ oceanography/). In contrast to the open-ocean components of IMOS, the shelf and coastal observation platforms are flexible, and the specifications of their deployment are largely to be determined by those researchers directly involved in IMOS. In...

“Smart Network” Infrastructure for the MBARI Ocean Observing System

The MBARI Ocean Observing System (MOOS) will consist of networked observation platforms and sensors deployed over a wide geographic area, distributed throughout the oceanic water column. The network will utilize a variety of communication links, including optical fiber, microwave, packet radio, satellite, and acoustic, resulting in diversity of throughput, latency, and intermittence throughout ...
