Ocean sentinels Autonomous floats in the world’s oceans combine optical and other sensor data with satellite imaging to provide new insight on marine nutrient cycles and, ultimately, our changing climate.

Sea-Bird Scientific’s VP of R&D, Rob Ellison, recently chatted with SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics, about the science behind biogeochemical sensing - specifically the challenges of measuring nitrate in the ocean.

We're at Oceanology International 2026! Visit Sea-Bird Scientific at booth #H100 to connect with our team and learn how our instrumentation supports reliable data collection across a wide range of marine applications.

What is bioluminescence? Bioluminescence - the light created by a living organism. But are you curious how it works? We give you the full scoop on what bioluminescence is, and how it works.

What glows in the ocean and isn’t toxic waste? 🌌

It’s called bioluminescence - a natural phenomenon where marine organisms produce their own light.

According to @noaa.gov, 80% of animals living between 200 and 1,000 meters deep are bioluminescent.

Accuracy Isn’t Optional: The Case for Pump Flow in Ocean Research Pump flow technology enables Sea-Bird Scientific CTDs to deliver the most accurate and reliable field data available.

“Pumps use too much power.”

It’s a phrase oceanographers have heard for years, but what if that assumption is outdated?

In our latest blog, we explore how pumped systems have proven to be both energy-efficient and long-lasting. Turns out, you don’t have to choose between precision and endurance.

In the waters off Cape Hatteras, scientists deploy Sea-Bird CTDs as part of the PEACH project to study the Gulf Stream.

Paused over a giant vortex Satellites discovered the vortex 50 years ago, but it took a tall-ship to reveal its secrets.

A 100-year-old ship. A 60 km-wide ocean vortex. And Sea-Bird Scientific CTDs on board. From the SBE 32 to a sensor-packed SBE 19plus V2, our instruments helped One Ocean Expedition map Norway’s Lofoten Vortex in 3D—down to 1000 meters deep. #OneOceanExpedition #SeaBirdScientific #OceanScience
