Scientists uncover ‘hidden’ water of the Arctic ocean Scientists working with marine robots have measured previously hidden patches of water between the Arctic and Atlantic oceans that could dramatically alter our understanding of how the ocean’s food web forms. Created in the northern part of the Barents Sea, as cooler and fresher water from the Arctic moves south and becomes trapped within the warmer and saltier water from the Atlantic, these eddies, circular patches of water that have broken off from an ocean current, measure roughly 30 kilometres across.

The water column of the Barents Sea has a seemingly simple structure where water from the Atlantic dominates in the south but in the north it is overlain by fresher, less dense water from the Arctic. This Arctic water is largely devoid of the nutrients required to fuel the growth of phytoplankton, which is key to maintaining life in the ocean. In contrast the Atlantic Water is one of the key pathways of nutrient rich water into the Arctic. Dr Porter added: “How these eddies affect this exchange is something we need to investigate if we are to truly understand the ocean ecosystem there.” Arctic oceanographer Prof Finlo Cottier of SAMS, a co-author on the paper, said: “SAMS has been working with ocean gliders for over a decade and we know that they are the ideal tool for measuring the detailed properties of the ocean. This work gives us precise measurements of important structures in the Arctic that we couldn’t previously obtain.” The discovery was made during a two-week trial of the glider ‘Zephyr’ in July 2017, ahead of a longer mission as part of the Arctic PRIZE project, funded by the Natural Environment Research Council’s Changing Arctic Ocean programme. Challenger Travel Awards In these difficult times for everyone, we thank all the applicants for the April round of the Challenger Travel Awards. It doesn’t look as though any of the applications are still valid or definite. As a result the Challenger Society council will put off applications until the October round, and current applicants will be contacted individually. I hope everyone is keeping up with history of oceanography things during the shutdown. A report on the 100th anniversary of the Liverpool Tidal Institute meeting, last year. can be found in the last Ocean Challenge: https://www.challenger -society.org.uk/Ocean_Challenge. All the talks can be found as pdfs through the link mentioned in that article (unfortunately although all the talks were filmed they are still not available, long story).

to feedback received from users and stakeholders, including through the recent OpenSeaLab hackathon, www.emodnet.eu/ conference/opensealab/, and constitutes a natural evolution of EMODnet to become ever more service oriented. At the meetings, experts recognized the need for EMODnet to undergo continual development to ensure that, as an essential tool for scientists, engineers, managers and policy-makers analysing the state and dynamics of Europe’s seas, it can continue to meets these users needs. The meeting documents, presentations and minutes will be made available on the Maritime Forum.

NORTEK webinar series Following unprecedented participation, the full Spring 2020 Webinar Series is posted. Last week we kicked off a series of interactive, online webinars to fill the void from all the missed conferences, workshops, Nortek Days, and training sessions at which we would normally see you all this time of year. We are covering a broad range of topics in five tracks, which include:

• Introduction to the basic types of ADCP measurements

• Vessel-mounted system data collection • Tech Tips including deployment, software,

and troubleshooting • Ocean navigation sensors including the DVL

and Speed Log • Advanced ADCP applications such as

sediments and turbulence

These are short presentations followed by the opportunity to ask questions and engage with the community. See the full schedule and register at www.nortekgroup.com/seminars/nortek-2020-webinars. Pioneering seabed-to-shore data delivery operation completed for A/S Norske Shell offshore NorwaySonardyne International Ltd. and XOCEAN have successfully completed a live seabed-to-shore data harvesting mission using an unmanned surface vessel (USV) for A/S Norske Shell, as part of a seabed monitoring campaign at the giant

Ormen Lange field offshore Norway.The project, completed early Monday morning (April 20th), without a single person having to travel offshore or from their home office, was achieved with significantly less emissions, health and safety risk, and cost than could be done with a manned vessel.

By using an XOCEAN XO-450 USV to harvest data from an array of Sonardyne’s long-endurance Fetch pressure monitoring transponders (PMTs), an estimated 5.4 tonnes of CO2 per day was prevented from being emitted into the atmosphere, had a manned vessel been used. XOCEAN’s USVs have a negligible carbon footprint, around one thousandth of the emissions of a conventional vessel, and all other emissions are offset, resulting in a fully carbon neutral operation. The project, which saw the USV transit a total of 300 km from Kristiansund out to the Ormen Lange field and back, over just three days, is also thought to be one of the largest data harvesting missions, using a USV, to date. In addition, it proved the ability to support this type of operation remotely without anyone involved having to travel, safely meeting current Covid-19 movement restrictions. The vessel was ‘posted’ to Norway and then launched by local marine operations service provider, SafePath AS. All other team members, including Sonardyne’s remote operations specialists in the UK, XOCEAN’s USV pilots in Ireland and Shell’s geophysicists in Norway and the US, remained working from their home offices.

The Fetch PMTs were deployed in 800 - 1,100 m water depth at the Ormen Lange field last September to support a long-term seabed monitoring campaign.The Fetch PMTs accurately collect pressure, temperature and inclination data at the seafloor, at pre-programmed intervals. Using this data, any vertical displacement of the seabed can be calculated. The data will help Norske Shell to proactively inform its reservoir management strategy. Sonardyne’s long-life Fetch PMTs incorporate a high-speed acoustic modem, which allows stored data to be extracted at any time, wirelessly through the water, on demand. On this mission, the XO-450 was equipped with a compatible Sonardyne acoustic transceiver attached beneath its hull. Shaun Dunn, Sonardyne’s Global Business Manager for Exploration and Surveillance said, “We have always been big advocates of collecting data from our subsea instruments remotely using autonomous platforms. This technology is now coming of age and makes complete sense when thinking about the environment, the safety of offshore personnel and minimising cost. What’s more, thanks to the low hull and propulsion noise USVs can achieve, the data gathering is also faster, adding further to the efficiencies of this approach.” James Ives, CEO of XOCEAN said, “Our USV platform has demonstrated itself to be a safe, reliable and ultra-low carbon solution for the collection of ocean data. We are delighted to be working with A/S Norske Shell and Sonardyne International on this ground-breaking project.” Planet Ocean Ltd is pleased to announce the signing of a global partnership agreement with Pharos Marine Automatic Power Ltd. Planet Ocean and Pharos Marine have teamed to provide data buoy solutions World Wide. Pharos Marine can trace their origins back to 1904, and have been producing world class navigation buoys throughout the World.

To promote interdisciplinary studies in marine environmental science and to foster the next generation of ocean scientists, the State Key Laboratory of Marine Environmental Science (MEL, http://mel.xmu.edu.cn/en), Xiamen University initiated the Xiamen Symposium on Marine Environmental Sciences (XMAS) in 2014, with the overarching theme The Changing Ocean Environment: From a Multidisciplinary Perspective. XMAS has grown to be one of Asia’s largest conferences in marine sciences and acts as a hot spot to exchange research interests in global and regional oceans.

Its fifth iteration, XMAS-V (http://melmeeting.xmu.edu.cn/xmas5) will be held in Xiamen from January 11th to 14th, 2021. XMAS-V will focus on how Multidisciplinary Sciences Can Serve a Sustainable and Healthy Ocean. It will be one of the important hallmarks of Xiamen University’s centenary celebrations. The symposium will consist of different, interconnected sessions covering physical oceanography, marine biogeochemistry, biological oceanography, and marine ecotoxicology along

with workshops for emerging topics in marine environmental sciences such as how to achieve the goals outlined in the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (2021-2030).

MEL was established in 2005 under sponsorship from the Ministry of Science and Technology of China (MOST). It has been awarded The Excellent State Key Laboratory twice in two recent official reviews by MOST. MEL is dedicated to interdisciplinary cutting-edge research in marine environmental sciences, with particular strengths in marine biogeochemistry and ecosystem studies.

Originally known as Amoy, Xiamen is an island renowned for rich cultural relics, a pleasant climate, and beautiful natural scenery. It is located on the southeast coast of China and has a long history of international commerce. It has a monsoonal humid subtropical climate characterized by mild and dry winters (average January temperature around 15 °C /59 °F).

we believe it is the best course of action for all involved. In the last couple of months, we have been speaking to customers, partners and supporters to understand their views and to ensure we make the best decision - in such challenging circumstances - for the ocean communities we serve. We trust that postponing Oceanology International Middle East will enable us to deliver the true value of this world-leading brand next year. Amid these challenging times, we would like to reiterate our commitment in creating new opportunities and connections for our industry. Over the next several months, we will offer our

support to the global community by hosting various digital activities that will connect our exhibitors with their targeted clients. In advance, we thank you for your understanding and support.
