Accuracy Isnβt Optional: The Case for Pump Flow in Ocean Research
Pump flow technology enables Sea-Bird Scientific CTDs to deliver the most accurate and reliable field data available.
βPumps use too much power.β
Itβs a phrase oceanographers have heard for years, but what if that assumption is outdated?
In our latest blog, we explore how pumped systems have proven to be both energy-efficient and long-lasting. Turns out, you donβt have to choose between precision and endurance.

What do our oceans mean to you? π
At Sea-Bird Scientific, the answer is simple - everything.
Every instrument we build supports the scientists and researchers working to protect our most vital resource.
This #WorldOceansMonth, weβre celebrating ocean science and the people behind it.

Scientists from the UGA Skidaway Institute of Oceanography deploying an underwater glider equipped with Sea-Bird Scientific sensors.
This glider is part of a larger network of autonomous underwater robots spanning the U.S. and the Caribbean, all working together to improve hurricane prediction models by collecting critical ocean temperature data.

Paused over a giant vortex
Satellites discovered the vortex 50 years ago, but it took a tall-ship to reveal its secrets.
A 100-year-old ship. A 60 km-wide ocean vortex. And Sea-Bird Scientific CTDs on board. From the SBE 32 to a sensor-packed SBE 19plus V2, our instruments helped One Ocean Expedition map Norwayβs Lofoten Vortex in 3Dβdown to 1000 meters deep. #OneOceanExpedition #SeaBirdScientific #OceanScience
