| The instrumented sea-mammals program is the global network of open-ocean in-situ observations, being implemented by an international partnership of researchers. Instrumented sea-mammals provide trajectories and vertical profiles of various physical, biogeochemical variables in different regions around the globe. The program’s objective is to build and maintain a multidisciplinary global network for a broad range of research and operational applications including biology, climate and ecosystem variability and forecasting and ocean state validation. Sea-mammals data are publicly available.
