Argo is much more than ocean data – it is a unique international community! From 12 to 16 Oct. in Brest 🇫🇷, the ADMT-27 is a key opportunity for the global Argo data mgmt team to come together & develop #OneArgo.
💡Event organised by @ifremer.bsky.social, @oceanops.bsky.social & EA ERIC within #EAONE.
Day 2 of #ADMT27!
Nathan Briggs presents progress on fluorescent and coloured dissolved organic matter (FDOM/CDOM) measurements in BioGeoChemical #Argo, helping us better understand ocean carbon cycling, ecosystem health, and environmental change.

Last week @ukargo.bsky.social and @bodc.bsky.social attended the @challengersoc.bsky.social Conference in Bangor
Clare B presented the poster 'Getting Started With Argo' to share knowledge of practical information for Early Career UK scientists when considering joining the Argo programme.
We are at the @icos-ri.eu science conference in Lund
The theme this year is “Science, Data and Action: Together for Climate Action”
We are presenting our work undertaken with the ICOS Ocean Thematic Centre and ICOS Carbon Portal developers to enhance ocean metadata captured in the ICOS database 🌊📊
Another busy day at the NERC Digital Gathering yesterday, full of presentations, posters and exhibiting
Various topics were discussed- big data and collaboration opportunities, MEDIN standards and FAIR marine time-series data
In the last day today, we continue to champion FAIR environmental data📊
New film 'Pressure' tells how weather forecasts shaped D-Day.
But there’s another forecast that was just as important. The tide.
Look back at the role of tidal prediction on this historic day, and discover the link to NOC's scientific heritage in our latest #blog.
