UGOT hosts two research stations and an ocean-going research vessel.
Role in DiverSea
Within DiverSea, the University of Gothenburg will develop and apply sensor and sensor platform applications to study the essential ocean variables in different case study areas, especially the northern case, and the Aegean Sea. They are developing new underwater inspection AUV robots that will be evaluated and applied to the project needs. Additionally, UGOT will contribute to data management and support modelling development. UGOT will further contribute to the citizen science development and some outreach components.
