Access the data collected by our fleet of underwater gliders

The overarching goal of MAGIC is to acquire new high-resolution measurements from underwater gliders to assess the contribution of small-scale processes that sustain the ocean’s biological productivity. Here, you can access comprehensive oceanographic measurements collected by our fleet of Teledyne Webb Research Slocum underwater gliders. These data sets include crucial information of our oceans waters including temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen concentration, and optical properties.

Real-time Glider Trajectories and Data:

We have partnered with Rutgers University to serve our glider real-time data on their data visualization website and ERRDAP.  Check out the Rutgers Center for Ocean Observing Leadership (RUCOOL) glider deployments page.

Archived Data:

Data from ASU BIOS gliders are found on the US IOOS glider data assembly center (DAC).  The glider DAC provides access through ERRDAP and a THREDDS server.

Our data is also preserved for long-term use at the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI).
