NORSOOP annual meeting

The Norwegian Ships of Opportunity Program (NORSOOP) for marine and atmospheric research (2018-2023) is a project coordinated by NIVA and funded by the Research Council of Norway for 26.9 mNOK over 5 years. The project will establish and operate a ship of opportunity-based infrastructure to support marine and atmospheric research. NorSOOP will have ships that operate regularly in the North Sea, the Norwegian Sea (including coastal Norway and fjords), and the Barents Sea in the Arctic. The ships will be outfitted with state-of-the-art environmental sensors and samplers to measure physical, chemical, and biological processes in Norwegian waters. NORSOOP is an important contributor to Arctic Ocean observing systems.
