UCSB Ocean Surface Currents Mapping Project - Projects

The Interdisciplinary Oceanography Group (IOG) is affiliated with the Institute for Computational Earth System Science (ICESS) based at the University of California (UCSB). The IOG deals with issues and questions that involve many different ocean sciences. Libe Washburn heads the group on projects that often involve collaboration with other research units or governmental agencies.

The main project of the IOG involves HF Radar Mapping of Surface Currents along the Central California Coast.

Other Projects we are involved with include:

• Montecito Sanitary District Effluent Study
• Underway CTD profiles (uCTD) between Southern California Marine Institute (SCMI) and the Wrigley Institute (WI).
• PISCO
• Santa Barbara Coastal LTER
• Moorea Coral Reef LTER
• UCSB Hydrocarbon Seeps Project
