IFCB Dashboards

IFCB Dashboards facilitate inter-institution research, policy development and education. Below are a sampling of live, time-series streams of millions of IFCB images.

 

WHOI Sosik lab	The Sosik lab at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) is known for pioneering the IFCB. One of the lab’s primary IFCB applications is monitoring harmful algal blooms (HABs).
Marthas Vineyard Coastal Observatory (MVCO)	MVCO is a coastal observatory off of Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts that is a vital resource for researchers studying coastal and marine ecosystems, including early detection and monitoring of HABs.
NASA NAAMES cruise	NAAMES research missions were conducted in the North Atlantic Ocean to study the interplay between ocean ecosystems, atmospheric aerosols, and climate. Missions spanned North Atlantic regions including areas near the Azores, the Gulf Stream, and the subpolar gyre.
Salt Pond Observatory	Salt Pond’s observatory continuously monitors the abundance and diversity of phytoplankton in Salt Pond, a coastal lagoon on Cape Cod, Massachusetts to understand the dynamics of local marine ecosystems, particularly the base of the food web.
SAMS Observation Stations	The Scottish Association for Marine Sciences (SAMS) observation stations in Scotland, UK are part of  efforts to monitor marine environments around the Shetland Islands.
SCOOS Website SCOOS Santa Cruz	A network of  twelve IFCBs (CA IFCB Network) overseen by the Southern California Coastal Ocean Observing System (SCCOOS) at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, are deployed at numerous critical land based locations and also perform shipboard sampling on cruises.
