Description:

Advancing our understanding of ocean biogeochemistry, biology, and ecosystemsrelies on the ability to make observations both in the ocean and at the criticalboundaries between the ocean and other earth systems at relevant spatial andtemporal scales. After decades of advancement in ocean observing technologies,one of the key remaining challenges is how to cost-effectively make measurementsat the increased resolution necessary for illuminating complex system processes andrapidly evolving changes. In recent years, biogeochemicalin situsensors have beenemerging that are threefold or more lower in cost than established technologies; thecost reduction for many biologicalin situsensors has also been significant, althoughthe absolute costs are still relatively high. Cost savings in these advancements hasbeen driven by miniaturization, new methods of packaging, and lower-cost mass-produced components such as electronics and materials. Recently, field projectshave demonstrated the potential for science-quality data collection via large-scaledeployments using cost-effective sensors and deployment strategies. In the comingdecade, it is envisioned that ocean biogeochemistry and biology observations will berevolutionized by continued innovation in sensors with increasingly low price points andthe scale-up of deployments of thesein situsensor technologies. The goal of this studyis therefore to: (1) provide a review of existing sensor technologies that are alreadyachieving cost-effectiveness compared with traditional instrumentation, (2) present casestudies of cost-effectivein situdeployments that can provide insight into methods forbridging observational gaps, (3) identify key challenge areas where progress in costreduction is lagging, and (4) present a number of potentially transformative directions forfuture ocean biogeochemical and biological studies using cost-effective technologiesand deployment strategies.
