Matthew Palmer, our Professor of Marine Autonomy and Environmental Intelligence, is leading the EQUIFy project – a collaboration led by Plymouth Marine Laboratory (PML), with the University and Cefas as partners, which is exploring how floating offshore wind and other such deployments could interact with deeper seas, seasonal changes and the wider marine ecosystem.

The team recently tested a novel autonomous monitoring system, designed to improve how environmental evidence is gathered, in the Smart Sound Plymouth proving ground. And in this video Matthew and Juliane Wihsgott, Physical Oceanographer at PML and observational lead for EQUIFy, explain how it works and what benefits it could bring for companies and decision-makers working in the field.
