Nauru Oceanic Observing System

The Nauru Oceanic Observing System is a network of sensors and instruments deployed around Nauru to monitor ocean conditions, such as temperature, currents, and marine health. Its purpose is to gather reliable data on the ocean environment, supporting climate research, marine resource management, and environmental protection. By continuously collecting this information, the system helps scientists better understand changes in the ocean, which can impact local ecosystems and economies, especially in island nations like Nauru that depend heavily on marine resources. The system promotes sustainable use and resilience of ocean-dependent communities.
