The robotic seafloor monitoring programme was a world-first<\/h3>\nWhen Pizarro began this programme in Australia, the Field Robotics Centre\u2019s ocean environment focus was relatively new. The ability to precisely revisit sites allows marine scientists to directly observe environmental changes following events like coral bleaching from heat waves.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe did this research with a group of fantastic students and some talented engineers and turned it into an operational seabed observation and monitoring programme around Australia,\u201d Pizarro commented.<\/p>\n
Through annual or two-yearly precise observations of the ocean environment, changes in the seafloor and how different species grew, died, and if they moved could be made. So, why did the research\u2019s focus move from Australia to Norway?<\/p>\n
Pizarro explained: \u201cThis research in Australia goes on, but as an operational monitoring programme, where there is less room for big changes. I want to develop new robots that can observe the ocean environment even better and see how we can collect data more cheaply and efficiently.<\/p>\n
\u201cNTNU and Trondheim are a hub of research and innovation in marine technology, so it seems like a great place to make big advances,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
