As a result of collaboration between the private sector, academic research institutions, and government agencies, a valuable dataset highlighting the intricate connection between the ocean, atmosphere, and climate has been amassed.<\/p>\n<p>A total of over 100,000 nautical miles have been collected from Royal Caribbean&#8217;s ships sailing across the Caribbean Sea, Galapagos Sea, North Atlantic Sea, and Mediterranean Sea by the end of 2023.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe World Meteorological Organization\u2019s and Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission\u2019s Global Ocean Observing System, in which NOAA is a major contributor, needs sustained and systematic operations with automated instruments on a variety of platforms, including this innovative collaboration,\u201d Rik Wanninkhof, a NOAA senior scientist and ocean carbon expert at the Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory, said. Royal Caribbean Group&#8217;s ships contribute data on CO2 surface temperature and salinity to these ocean observing networks that help determine the ocean&#8217;s carbon sink strength and acidification.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OceanScope, a program that gathers climate and ocean data for climate and ocean conservation, is to receive a four-year extension from Royal Caribbean Group.
