Oceanographic Research

Over a Decade of Field Experience

Oceanscience has supplied the oceanographic community with deployment platforms for environmental monitoring instrumentation for more than a decade. Surface buoy mounts and seafloor frames for acoustic Doppler current profilers are designed to lead the industry in reliability and ruggedness. Clients with custom design projects from large spar buoys to small sensor packages benefit from the extensive ocean engineering experience at Oceanscience.

CTD Profiles Without Stopping the Ship

Conceived at Scripps Institution of Oceanography and developed at Oceanscience, the revolutionary UnderwayCTD has brought low cost, high quality upper ocean CTD profiles to physical oceanographers at sea in all of the major world oceans. Using a revolutionary free-fall sensor, hundreds of high quality CTD profiles may be gathered on a typical research cruise, all while fully underway at over 10kts!

Rugged and Reliable Seafloor ADCP Frames

The Sea Spider and Barnacle bottom frames for upward-looking acoustic Doppler current profilers from Nortek, SonTek, Teledyne RDI, and Linkquest lead the competition thanks to their high quality construction and longevity. Don't take chances with inferior or throw-away frames.

Monitor Harbor Currents in Real Time

Designed for United States Coastguard buoys, the Clamparatus buoy mount for the Nortek Aquadopp ADCP is the exclusive platform for real time monitoring of currents to aid ship piloting through the NOAA PORTS system.
