Coastal Environmental Observatory of the Southwest of the Iberian Peninsula

The Environmental Coastal Observatory of the Southwest of the Iberian Peninsula (OCASO) is a cross-border project led by Universidad de Cádiz, having as partners Universidade do Algarve, Instituto Hidrográfico de Portugal, Puertos del Estado e Instituto Español de Oceanografía. The main objective is to aggregate oceanographic information and knowledge from this coastal area.
Observation data is collected from various platforms managed by the partners, such as moorings, high frequency coastal radars and oceanographic campaigns, which are obtained with the use of autonomous submarine vehicles (AUV), such as the one operated by UAlg.
