Using autonomous vehicles for systematic acquisition of ocean physical data, not forgetting the issues related to the legal framework associated with this type of operation

Develop and use sensors (loggers) coupled to large pelagics to obtain oceanographic information in places not covered by current static sensor networks

Develop metabarcoding techniques using NGS to obtain information of biological diversity, microbiome composition and water quality

Testing and calibrating oceanographic models with all the information available

Implement and use miniaturized sensor networks in coastal areas to monitor the status of ecosystems
