Pont Aven Ferry Box, Measuring Surface Oceanographic Parameters in the Western Channel, The Iroise Sea, the Celtic Sea and the Bay of Biscay
The Ferry Box onboard Brittany Ferries’ Pont Aven vessel, which was installed in collaboration with Roscoff Marine Station, was financed by the Previmer project (CPER Bretagne funding). Within the context of this project, the data acquired by the device is used in the Previmer oceanographic models. The data can be accessed with the Coriolis oceanographic data server.
Six surface parameters (temperature, salinity, oxygen content, chlorophyll fluorescence, turbidity and CDOM) are regularly measured during transects through a given area. In addition to these observations, plankton (both phyto and zooplankton are counted in the same way as for the Marine Station FerryBox installed onboard the Armorique ferry.
