Our Natural Environment Research Council #APICS buoy takes an important step toward full deployment. Thank you to our core suppliers McLane Research Labs, Plankton Analytics and Hydrosphere for your work in getting us here; and the brilliant #APICS team Plymouth Marine Lab for pushing the project forward.

A busy week at the lab! Moving two of our #autonomous buoys to Turnchapel Wharf Wharf in Plymouth before deployment later this month. One of the buoys was taken in for planned upgrades in Feb, the other is a new addition & has not yet been out on the water: pml.ac.uk/News/Precious-…
