FMRI Town Hall: Shaping the Future of UK Ocean Observing
Join the conversation at the AGU Ocean Sciences Meeting, Glasgow
How we observe the ocean could be at a turning point. The Future Marine Research Infrastructure (FMRI) programme has been taking a coordinated, future-ready approach to designing the next generation of ocean observing…
Building a connected autonomous network
This month, the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) AI Lab, backed by FMRI funding, delivered a proof-of-concept AI system that optimises the…
The Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) is investing in the future of the UK’s marine science capability through the Future Marine Research Infrastructure (FMRI) programme (…
The Future Marine Research Infrastructure (FMRI) programme has reached a major milestone with the release of three new reports that will help set the direction for the UK’s future ocean science capabilities.
These reports are:
“Marine pollution is one of the defining environmental challenges of our time, affecting ecosystems, economies and human health. The FMRI Science Requirements Framework highlights how world-leading marine science will be essential to detect, track and reduce pollution, using new technologies and global collaboration to protect the ocean for future generations.” says Clara Manno,…
“Around the world, communities face threats from hazards such as extreme weather, earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions and flooding, many amplified by climate change. Marine science is central to building resilience...” says Dr Isobel Yeo, Senior Research Geoscientist at the National Oceanography Centre and Chapter Author of FMRI’s latest report: ‘A UK Science…
The UK’s marine research sector is poised for an exciting transformation, with a proposed strategic investment into cutting-edge autonomous technology to boost ocean science capabilities. To fully unlock this potential, a new report recommends modernising and strengthening the digital systems that connect and power this technology - laying the foundation for a more integrated, efficient, and…
The Future Marine Research Infrastructure (FMRI) programme has published a findings and roadmap report from its Coastal Autonomy Workshop, hosted by the National Centre for Coastal Autonomy (NCCA) at Plymouth Marine Laboratory. The event brought together UK academia, industry, government, and international experts to explore the transformative potential of autonomous technologies in…
