PAP-SO cooperates with many different sites and networks
-
CLASS
PAP-SO is funded by the CLASS project and contributes to the delivery of knowledge and understanding of the Atlantic Ocean system that society needs to make evidence-based decisions regarding ocean management.
-
MAWS network
The Marine Automatic Weather Station (MAWS) network is a collaboration between the Met Office and the NOC started in 2010, resulting in a Met Office surface buoy with in situ meteorological measurements being deployed at the PAP-SO.
-
iFADO
The Innovation in the Framework of the Atlantic Deep Ocean (iFADO) project aims to create marine services at regional and subregional scales using the EU Atlantic Waters as a case study.
-
ICOS
The PAP-SO is a fixed ocean observatory within the Integrated Carbon Observation System (ICOS) that takes ocean, atmospheric and ecosystem greenhouse gas observations into the carbon portal.
-
EMSO
The European Multidisciplinary Seafloor and water column Observatory (EMSO) aims to explore the oceans, to gain a better understanding of phenomena happening within and below them, and to explain the critical role that these phenomena play in the broader earth systems.
-
OceanSITES
PAP is a key observatory in the OceanSITES International Deep Ocean reference stations network.
