Last week, the Vetlesen Caribbean Hurricane Ocean Glider was launched! This is an important step in strengthening Caribbean ocean observing and hurricane forecasting efforts, and crucial support to the GOOS Ocean Observing Co-Design programme’s work on tropical cyclones. 21 July 2025 The RU 29 glider, as part of the OceanGlider network, will dive up to 1 000 metres beneath the ocean’s surface, collecting vital data on temperature, salinity, and currents before resurfacing every few h...| RUCOOL | Rutgers Center for Ocean Observing Leadership
MS in Operational Oceanography students Joseph DiDomenico, Bodhi Fox, Matthew Learn, Jessica Leonard, Jason Seiple, and Clayton Smith have successfully defended their theses! Over the past twelve months, the cohort familiarized themselves with the many ocean technologies used at RUCOOL and DMCS. Students worked closely with our operational teams to learn firsthand, all while completing a research thesis under the guidance of our faculty. This work was presented today to the public first and t...| RUCOOL | Rutgers Center for Ocean Observing Leadership

A new study led by Rutgers researchers reports long-term warming and shifts in salinity in the Caribbean Through‑Flow (CTF), a major ocean current that connects the tropics to the North Atlantic. The findings, published in Nature Scientific Reports, suggest that ongoing changes in this region may play a role in influencing broader ocean and climate dynamics. Using more than six decades of oceanographic data, the research team found that the upper 200 meters of the CTF has been steadily wa...| RUCOOL | Rutgers Center for Ocean Observing Leadership
BARBADOS IS BEING seen as a future hub for marine innovation, hurricane forecasting and scientific education. Regional and international ocean experts made that announcement at the pre-launch media briefing for the Vetlesen Caribbean Hurricane Ocean Glider at the Barbados Blue Dive Shop in Aquatic Gap, Needham’s Point, St Michael yesterday. This came about through the Caribbean Institute for Meteorology and Hydrology (CIMH), Rutgers University’s Centre for Ocean Observing Leadership (RU C...| RUCOOL | Rutgers Center for Ocean Observing Leadership
June 19, 2025 Rutgers University’s Center for Ocean Observing Leadership recently welcomed a distinguished delegation from Catalonia, Spain, and industry partners from California for two days of collaboration focused on advancing ocean observing technologies and sustainable fisheries management.
