International Arctic Buoy Programme: Maintains a network of automatic data buoys in the Arctic Basin which monitor synoptic-scale fields of pressure, temperature, and ice motion to support real-time operations and meteorological and oceanographic research. Provides monthly buoy maps, data sets, buoy reports, and a buoy motion and ice concentration animation which uses data from 1979 to 1994. Includes browsable images and data plots with accompanying audio files and buoy diagrams.

DeweyClass: 551.4
Resource type: documents, images, maps, reference data
NASA SeaWIFS Project: The Sea-Viewing Wide Field-of-View Sensor Project aims to understand the earth's behaviour and evolution by looking at it from space, and to gather quantitative data on global ocean bio-optical properties. Colour satellite images of plankton blooms, chlorophyll concentrations, coral reefs, and hurricanes are available, as well as technical reports and a teacher's section.
