SEATREC

Great to hear of the progress on this acoustic tool!

?? A big thank you to the Los Angeles Times for highlighting the invaluable support from the Small Business Development Corporation of Orange County and the IBank California for SEATREC! This $1M, state-backed loan empowers us to scale production of the infiniTE? Float, a technology harnessing renewable thermal energy from ocean temperature changes to advance oceanographic research. ?? We’re proud to be part of this clean technology movement that supports both scientific discovery and environmental sustainability. Exciting things are on the horizon as we push boundaries in #hurricane #rapidintensification prediction, #seafloor measurement, and sound monitoring of #whales and ocean soundscapes. #CleanTech #ClimateFinance https://lnkd.in/gw4TePDW

??Check out Seatrec's Fall Deep Dive! Our infiniTE? Floats make waves from Kona, Hawaii to Monterey Bay, San Diego, and the Gulf of Mexico. ?? #oceantech #hydrophones #hurricane #climatechange #robots #sensors #oceanography https://lnkd.in/gSkTkeSg

??Follow our infiniTE? float in the Gulf of Mexico! With 79 profiles in just a few weeks, the float's path indicates a strong coastal current following the bathymetry. As it continues its journey, the float is currently positioned northwest of #HurricaneMilton, gathering critical subsurface data in real time. Stay tuned as we continue to navigate through #HurricaneSeason2024. #hurricane #rapidintensification #OceanData #robotics

??Our infiniTE? Float is profiling to 500 meters every six hours. Warm waters in the upper 100 meters are providing plenty of "fuel" for the #rapidintensification of #HurricaneHelene.??? Stay tuned for developments in the coming hours. Stay safe. #HurricaneSeason2024 #Hurricane

??Since deploying off the coast of Destin, FL last Friday, our infiniTE? Float has profiled 23 times at a depth up to 500 meters, reporting temps over 25°C (77°F) at 55 meters—key conditions for #hurricane #rapidintensification. #HurricaneSeason2024 #HurricaneHelene #Florida #meteorology #floridaweather

?? Our infiniTE? float is just west of #HurricaneHelene’s forecasted track, deployed 100 miles off Destin, FL in 1000m+ deep waters. It’s following a cyclonic circulation pattern parallel to the topographic contours. We expect major data changes as the #hurricane passes through the float's location. #HurricaneSeason2024
