Exciting news! Sedna Robotics in Boston has outfitted Warden, the autonomous ocean observer with Lowell's data loggers! Co-founder Andrew Gregg hopes that Warden can help fill the subsurface gaps in the ocean observing systems left by traditional buoys and cooperative research efforts like #eMOLT.
Exciting news! Sedna Robotics in Boston has outfitted Warden, the autonomous ocean observer with Lowell's Dissolved Oxygen, Temperature Depth and CTD data loggers! Sedna co-founder Andrew Gregg is hoping that Warden can help fill in some of the subsurface gaps in the ocean observing systems left by traditional buoys and cooperative research efforts like eMOLT.

As a demonstration, the Sedna Robotics team launched Warden in Brewster last week and set it to sample a 5 km grid in a part of Cape Cod Bay with no DO measurements available through Mass DMF or eMOLT. Teams from Gulf of Maine Lobster Foundation and Commercial Fisheries Research Foundation are working with Sedna Robotics to incorporate this data into the existing eMOLT infrastructure so that they can be publicly accessed on ERDDAP and incorporated into FIShBOT.

Happy National Lobster Day! 🦞❤️🦞❤️🦞❤️🦞 More than 100 fishing vessels in New England are involved in our Environmental Monitors on Lobster Traps and Large Trawlers (eMOLT) program. Sensors collect bottom water temperatures, temperature profiles, and dissolved oxygen data from their fishing grounds.
Happy National Lobster Day! 🦞❤️🦞❤️🦞❤️🦞

More than 100 fishing vessels in New England are involved in our Environmental Monitors on Lobster Traps and Large Trawlers (eMOLT) program. They attach low-cost oceanographic sensors to their gear to collect bottom water temperatures, temperature profiles, and dissolved oxygen data from their fishing grounds. These data are transmitted in near-real time to the vessel and to numerical oceanographic models.

Hello Summer Check out this keepah! Its great to be on the water with my trusted 1st mate Domino. Continuous testing of our On-Deck Data System has its advantages! F/V Maggie Sue is doing her part to feed temperature, dissolved oxygen & depth data into the eMOLT platform. Might need a bigger boat!?!
