To meet the challenge of scientific access to remote oceanic regions and the deep sea, an adaptive science vessel strategy called MARV is being focused on catalyzing research that is global in scale, internationally collaborative, and technology driven – and directed toward applications that will accelerate our scientific understanding of critical planetary processes and environmental change.
The Modular Adaptive Research Vessel (MARV) strategy is about more than just physical research platforms. It is an organizational process for aligning MARV capacity with scientific communities, new research potential, and expedition projects that will enable transformational research. But it all starts with the MARV platform…
Global Oceans is aligned with private-sector and nonprofit resource partners for access to advanced scientific and exploration tools, vehicles and technical expertise – all of which can be optimally deployed on MARV platforms configured to support each system.
