MBARI’s Technology Roadmap sets out the path for our development efforts. The Roadmap sets for the challenges we are addressing:
MBARI-developed technology is used every day at sea and in the laboratory, both here at the institute and around the world:
Six moored instrument arrays have been installed over Monterey Canyon for a large experiment to track underwater avalanches.
Part of MBARI’s mission is to share our cutting-edge tools and technologies with researchers around the world.
MBARI engineers are modifying this autonomous underwater vehicle to capture high-definition video marine biologists can use to discover and catalog midwater animals.
Another way to share our developments and discoveries is through publication and presentations to industry groups.
Research programs at the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) encompass the entire ocean, from the surface waters to the deep seafloor, and from the coastal zone to the open sea. The need to understand the ocean in all its complexity and variability drives MBARI's research and development efforts.
