RAMÓN MARGALEF SHIP AND ITS

ROBOT LIROPUS 2.000

AN OCEANOGRAPHIC SHIP

The oceanographic ship assessed the impact of underwater volcanic eruption on El Hierro island on

the marine ecosystem.

It has an robot Rov Liropus 2000, which is being used to explore volcanic eruptions, seabed biodiversity,

the biology of marine species, zooplanktoncommunities , the marine pollution of the Planktonic

Ecosystem Dynamics, etc

It also has four laboratories; dry and / or wet with pre-installation for measuring equipment, filtration, etc, where the crew performs the calculations and

checks, as well as coordinating all coring operations.

THE SUBMARINE (ROV) CAPABLE OF OPERATING UP TO

2,000 METERS DEEP.

ITS CAMERAS AND FORCEPS ARE USED TO CATCH THE SAMPLES OF ALGAE,

FISH AND SEAFOOD.

ROSETTES ARE USED DOWN TO THE BOTTOM TO MEASURE SALINITY, TEMPERATURE,

OXYGEN AND OTHER WATER PARAMETERS IN ANY PART OF A SUBMARINE VULCANO

OR DEEP OCEAN

RECEIVING SATELLITE INFO STATION

In July 2010, the system for receiving satellite data installed in 1998 in order to obtain images of Sea Surface Temperature (SST) by capturing the data

provided by meteorological satellites was completely renovated in the IEO Santander NOAA and Metop

series.

Currently, the station receives more than 10 daily passes from NOAA-18, NOAA-19 and METOP-A

METOP-B to its passage over the coverage area of Santander Satellite Oceanography Centre.

Subsequently these data are processed and converted to images SST.

The quicklooks in JPG format and SST final images in JPG format are available
