Live Buoy Data
Live Wave Buoy Prominent live scientific buoy located near Sdot Yam beach. It is a key piece of marine research infrastructure for Israel.
Live Wave Buoy!
Here comes another wave – and it's a big one!Planning on going surfing this weekend?For months now, our smart research buoy has been diligently performing its task in the heart of the sea – it collects, analyzes, and transmits continuous data to us in real-time about the sea conditions in the Eastern Mediterranean. Among other things, the buoy also measures... waves.But what exactly is a wave, and why do we…
Dolphins acoustic research
About the ResearchResearch project on dolphin whistles along the Israeli coastline, conducted at the Morris Kahn Marine Research Station. The project aims to advance our understanding of the acoustic behavior, communication, and ecology of local dolphin populations through detailed analysis of their vocalizations. Ultimately, the research seeks to develop an acoustic tool for distinguishing between species and to create a whistle catalogue that could enable the identification of individual dolphins…
