The Technology in Ecology Lab collaborates extensively within SERC and globally to design and support technological innovation, serving ecological research, experimental design, and data infrastructure. Ultimately, we aim to utilize open-source technology sensor platforms, like Arduino, to provide low-cost novel methods to monitor environmental phenomena. Using this approach, we develop and support several ongoing climate change experiments, including SMARTX, GENX, and MERIT, and maintain sensor and data infrastructure for the MarineGEO Chemical and Physical Observations Program.
