The ocean and its inhabitants face a rising tide of threats. Pollution, overfishing, and climate change make for an uncertain future. We’re working to understand this incredible habitat and how animals there will navigate these changes. The ocean needs our help. All life—including us—depends on a healthy ocean.

A single robotic float costs the same as two days at sea on a research ship. The floats can collect data autonomously for more than five years in remote areas and in all seasons, including during winter storms, when shipboard work is limited. This game-changing technology is transforming how oceanographers and climate scientists observe and understand our changing ocean. Data streaming from the float array becomes available in near-real-time and is made freely available to researchers, educators, and policymakers around the world. Sharing these data brings new opportunities to learn, collaborate, and inspire collective action for our changing ocean.

 The ocean is the big blue heart of our planet. Ultimately, we need a diversity of perspectives and minds to solve the challenges it faces. When scientists from all disciplines work with engineers and communicators, we can inspire collective action for the ocean, together. Learn more about eDNA on our website. 

All watersheds on the planet drain into the ocean and there are many fishes that are diadromous—migrating between freshwater and saltwater—such as salmon and trout. To effectively monitor ecosystems that support endangered and threatened species like coho salmon and steelhead trout, MBARI researchers partnered with @NOAA to use the ESP, a robotic “laboratory in a can,” to filter environmental DNA (eDNA) in order to sample and detect drifting bits of genetic material that allow us to examine organisms without ever seeing or catching them.
