Your Ship in Action for Marine Research: SOOP - Toste Tanhua, GEOMAR Kiel

Technology And The Sea - Fascination Marine Technology

Lots of ships in action for marine research - that's the idea behind the SOOP innovation platform, which is the subject of this podcast episode:
Private sailing ships, cargo ships, cruise ships, ferries or cutters - every ship can collect the scientific data that is so urgently needed for marine research wherever it is travelling.
SOOP - Shaping an Ocean of Possibilities - is a new innovation platform that aims to bring everyone together:
Industry, which is developing the necessary easy-to-use marine technology,
society, which plays its part in collecting data and
science, which works with this data.
SOOP is being funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research from 2023 to 2025 as part of the Helmholtz funding line "Innovation platforms as sustainable and structure-building measures to strengthen transfer and innovation".
This innovation platform is coordinated by Toste Tanhua, chemist and oceanographer at the GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel, who explains in detail in this podcast episode how SOOP will work and how you can already support it now.
