Argo Program

The Argo Program is an international initiative focused on collecting ocean data to improve our understanding of climate change and its impact on marine ecosystems. It uses a global network of drifting buoys equipped with sensors that measure temperature, salinity, and currents in the ocean. These buoys move with ocean currents, providing crucial information about the state of the seas over time. The data collected helps scientists predict weather patterns, track climate variations, and enhance our understanding of ocean health, ultimately supporting efforts to address global environmental challenges.
