THEMO

THEMO (Texas A&M - University of Haifa Eastern Mediterranean Observatory)” is an observatory comprising of two sensor arrays attached to 2.25m diameter surface buoys. THEMO includes a shallow mooring (125 m) in the coastal zone of the Levant Basin of the Mediterranean Sea, and a deep mooring (1500 m) located 50 km from the northern shores of Haifa after the continental shelf. The two moorings have realtime RF communication capabilities, and the data is received at a shore station and is displayed at the University of Haifa on 8 large tiled screens.
