en.Wedoany.com Reported - The Motril Port Authority (Autoridad Portuaria de Motril) and the University of Granada (Universidad de Granada) have jointly deployed an ocean buoy in the waters off the Tropical Coast (Costa Tropical) in the Alboran Sea (mar de Alborán). This buoy will form part of a long-term continuous monitoring system, continuously acquiring data on ocean conditions in the area, providing high-value information for scientific research, environmental management, and science communication. This initiative also reinforces the Motril Port Authority's commitment to environmental protection and sustainable blue economy.

The newly deployed buoy can collect real-time ocean data, supporting research on climate change-related phenomena such as heatwaves. These data can also be used for remote sensing calibration, ocean model validation, and tracking the dynamic evolution of marine ecosystems. Thanks to underwater and near-seabed sensors, the buoy provides real-time observations of the entire water column temperature, thereby improving the accuracy of prediction models for heatwaves and other meteorological phenomena.

All monitoring data will be freely accessible to researchers, public administration bodies, relevant entities, and citizens, to promote scientific cooperation and expand the accessibility of high-quality environmental information. In addition to scientific research purposes, this platform will generate real-time images and information, serving science communication and environmental awareness education activities, fostering a deeper public understanding of the marine environment.
