Into The DeepMoffett Field CA (SPX) Apr 29, 2010 There's a glut of research on climate change. Seemingly every day some new study comes out demonstrating the latest scientific understanding of changes to the Earth's systems. But the foundation of much research of this type is measurement, and there are, of course, severe limits to what can be measured. Improvements to our measurement abilities goes a long way towards improving and expanding climate change research. Which is why a new technology that fuels ocean robot exploration has been getting ... read more |
