Check out the new blogpost by @george-project.bsky.social on our prototype deployment from earlier this year! Acoustic wind sensing on a profiling float 🌊🕹️
GEORGE partners nke Instrumentation & LOV have successfully integrated a compact passive acoustic sensor into an Argo float. The work strengthens autonomous ocean observing & ties directly to TRICUSO.

Coolest thing ever 🤩
This morning we were introduced to the CaPASOS pCO2 sensor by the @exeter.ac.uk team, and then got to build a lite version ourselves to understand how it works. From bubbling the equilibrator to testing calibration with reference gas! 🫧⚗️
