From HMS Challenger to Argo and Beyond

Ocean profile data: their history, uses and future prospects

This one-day meeting, jointly sponsored by the History Groups of The Royal Meteorological Society and The Challenger Society for Marine Science, will take place at NOC, Southampton, United Kingdom, on 21 November 2018.

Knowledge of the temperature and salinity of the oceans is fundamental to our understanding of their internal dynamics and is increasingly important to a wide range of ocean and climate applications.  The programme of the meeting and the list of speakers are available on-line.

Registration is now open.
