About ARGO Data

Understanding the global ocean observation system

What is ARGO?

A global array of autonomous profiling floats that measure temperature, salinity, and pressure in the world's oceans, providing critical data for climate research and ocean forecasting.

Data Collection

Floats dive to 2000 meters depth, then rise to the surface while collecting measurements. Data is transmitted via satellite and made freely available to researchers worldwide.

Indian Ocean Focus

Our platform specializes in Indian Ocean data, covering a region critical for understanding monsoon systems, climate patterns, and marine ecosystems in this vital oceanic region.
