Our marine buoy has arrived!
We are very excited to take delivery of our first marine buoy. This sturdy unit will be deployed into Croyde Bay in the next few weeks, to monitor water quality in the sea.

Sometimes you just need to get your wellies on and get out in the water! High-tech solutions like our in-situ sensors are great, providing real-time water quality data, but low-tech solutions – such as a stick and a bottle – can be the best option.
