The second GEORGE Technical Forum was successfully organised at @VLIZnews in Ostend, Belgium. The interactive, hands-on training brought together 32 participants and 11 sensor experts.💡 👉 Read more: https://t.co/RMp0YzYDq5 @ICOS_RI @UniofExeter @NOCnews @CWSensors

GEORGE is teaming up with the ENVRINNOV to co-host a webinar on 22 October. Join us for a morning of insightful presentations and a panel discussion exploring the latest innovations in marine and freshwater measurement techniques. ➡️ Read more: https://t.co/QNwdQPvG89

That’s a wrap on GEORGE Technical Forum II! 💥A week of learning, collaboration & exploring new sensors with 32 participants + 11 experts from 11 countries. Big thanks to @VLIZnews for hosting & to all training partners for the sessions. See you in 2026 for Technical Forum III!

The GEORGE Technical Forum is wrapping up today with conversations around data. The participants were introduced to QuinCe, a quality control software by @ICOS_RI 💻 Any institution can access QuinCe for quality control of pCO2 data. 👉 Read more: https://t.co/GCdNidfyfp

Day 4 at the GEORGE Technical Forum! It’s been a packed and insightful week here at @VLIZnews for both participants and sensor demonstrators 💡Alongside the sessions, a professional camera crew has been filming video tutorials for the GEORGE online training platform.

The second day of the GEORGE Technical Forum featured a visit to the VLIZ Marine Robotics Lab, a knowledge hub for autonomous marine systems, including the USVs Adhemar and Gobelijn. Many thanks to the @VLIZnews team for showcasing their impressive technology!

Hello from the GEORGE Technical Forum at @VLIZnews! Day 2 kicked off with hands-on practical sessions. Over the next days, participants will explore the latest technologies and engage directly with sensor experts from #4HJena, @CWSensors, @NOCnews, @UniofExeter and @ICOS_RI

The second onsite training session of the GEORGE project, focusing on sensors, has kicked off today at the Flanders Marine Institute @VLIZnews! The event brings together technicians, engineers and scientists from European marine RIs. Read more: https://t.co/MuiiOCmzwm

ICOS RI has published the results of the largest intercomparison study of its kind, comparing 27 instruments used for surface ocean pCO₂ measurements, including some that are now being further developed and optimised in GEORGE. Read more: https://t.co/ERjrKhZhRX

Sailbuoy, a platform for surface ocean measurements equipped with the #CaPASOS sensor, was successfully recovered in Ireland by teams at @MarineInst ! The platform had been measuring pCO2 autonomously for 2,5 months, travelling more than 1 000 km ⛵🌊 Congrats to all!

Scientists in the GEORGE project have developed an autonomous sensor for monitoring total alkalinity (TA), an essential parameter of the ocean carbonate system that until now could not be monitored autonomously. Learn more: https://t.co/RlWt0SLQ2J

New study alert! The ICOS Ocean Thematic Centre has conducted a major intercomparison study, testing 27 different pCO2 instruments under controlled conditions. Congratulations to Tobias Steinhoff et al. on publishing this important work! 👉 Read more: https://t.co/i4UErkuqUo

Registration is now open for GEORGE partner Euro-Argo ERIC's 8th Euro-Argo Science Meeting, organised in Crete, Greece on 23-25 September 2025. ➡️ Learn more and register: https://t.co/t48VQmAbUq @EuroArgoERIC

The Sailbuoy autonomous surface ocean measurement platform was deployed yesterday off the coast of Ireland. The platform is equipped with #CaPASOS, a system for CO₂ measurements developed and optimised in GEORGE🌊

Recordings of the side events hosted by GEORGE partners at #UNOC3 are now available on the #EUDigitalPavilion website 💻 ➡️ View the recordings here:

🚢 The expedition to the Porcupine Abyssal Plain site, where new sensors and samplers developed in GEORGE were tested, concluded a week ago. Learn more about the scientific aims of the expedition and future plans in a @NOCnews blog post 👉 https://t.co/zejAwm0rIW

GEORGE partners @ICOS_RI and @Euro-ArgoERIC hosted three successful side events at UN Ocean Conference, discussing global ocean observation gaps, the #Argo programme, tech innovations and climate policy. ➡️ Read more: https://t.co/cIsB4qbDEW #UNOC3

The RRS James Cook has now returned to Southampton, UK, marking the end of a 24-day expedition to the Porcupine Abyssal Plain, where GEORGE technologies tested in deep-sea conditions. Welcome back, everyone! 🚢 #AutonomousOceanObservations #OceanCarbonObservations #HorizonEurope

GEORGE has developed a sampler for validating autonomous inorganic carbon measurements over long deployments. Last week at the PAP site, the samplers were installed on a large buoy for their first real-world test. Samples will be preserved for months for later lab analysis 🥇
