| '...the crowning achievement of TOGA was the development of the Tropical Atmosphere/Ocean (TAO) array...' EOS Transactions, American Geophysical Union, 78(1), 7 January 1997 | |
The TAO array (renamed the TAO/TRITON array on 1 January 2000) consists of approximately 70 moorings in the Tropical Pacific Ocean, telemetering oceanographic and meteorological data to shore in real-time via the Argos satellite system. The array is a major component of the El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) Observing System, the Global Climate Observing System (GCOS) and the Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS). Support is provided primarily by the United States (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) and Japan (Japan Agency for Marine-earth Science and TEChnology) with additional contributions from France (Institut de recherche pour le developpement). | |

It also provides tide predictions for the US and Moon phase information. The perfect tool to help plan your time on the water.For a map of buoys locations, go here. NDBC Seaglider SG601 has been recovered after a successful mission! SG601 provided temperature and salinity profile data in the northern Gulf of Mexico in support of hurricane intensity forecasts. SG601 was deployed for 86 days, covered 1790 km, performed 448 dives, and sent 877 individual profiles.
