An open-source quality control pipeline for SeaExplorer glider data: a case study in La Palma, Canary Islands
Autonomous underwater gliders provide critical, sustained ocean observations, yet effective data utilization hinges on standardized processing workflows. Addressing this need, we present an open-source, Python-based quality control pipeline specifically designed for SeaExplorer glider data. Demonstrated with data from La Palma, Canary Islands, this framework automates processing from raw files to CF-compliant outputs, employing fourteen QC tests while prioritizing data preservation for future re-evaluation.
2.6 Tonnes Of Cocaine Worth $ 570 Million Seized By Police In Atlantic Ocean
Law enforcement agencies have achieved a significant interdiction in the Atlantic Ocean, seizing 2.6 tonnes of cocaine—an estimated value of $570 million—during a coordinated operation. Four individuals, including citizens of Spain, Gibraltar, and Italy (Albanian resident), were arrested. This successful disruption highlights the ongoing challenges of maritime drug trafficking and underscores the importance of international collaboration in safeguarding ocean security. Further insights into marine environmental concerns can be found in our recent report, "First expedition Jaywun research vessel," detailing microplastic pollution assessments.
