Welcome to the Rutgers University Coastal Ocean Observation Lab! RU COOL! Our research focuses on the bio-physical processes of the coastal ocean. Our lab is constantly involved in research projects where operational observatories are used to collect real-time data for adaptive sampling. We study the coastal waters off New Jersey and around the World. We continue to collaborate with other research groups and commercial companies, developing new technologies for ocean sampling.
