Technological advancements have exploded in the last decade and the costs of emerging electronic components have decreased. Many of these advancements have not yet been applied to the oceans, providing a timely opportunity to match highest priority marine science research questions with enabling techniques over unprecedented geochemically and biologically relevant spatial and temporal scales (thus empowering observationalists, modelers, and directly engaging public interest in oceanographic processes). Here, we apply emergent technologies to coastal biogeochemical processes on scales capable of exciting researchers and local citizens groups by targeting development of an affordable coastal observatory platform and affordable new sensors.We have prioritized fundamental oceanographic research questions rooted in hypothesis-driven science that is poised to benefit from sensor, instrumentation, and technology transfer advancements and developments that can address the problems of an undersampled marine environment. This research will build upon a new, but proven, technology that uses open-source hardware components and custom software scripts that can be assembled, tested, deployed, and maintained by high school and undergraduate students, environmental management organizations, or the technologically-savvy citizen scientist, catalyzing interest in STEM fields. The work will improve, expand, and accelerate development and deployment of a low-cost wireless coastal observation platform, specifically scaling up to target parameters important for monitoring and assessing processes most applicable to public interest: coastal inundation, tidal variability, nuisance flooding, temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, chlorophyll, turbidity, and meteorological data. Deployments will focus upon the most robust affordable research-grade instruments and low-cost sensors to expand the network and engage a larger community base.

在过去十年中，技术进步呈爆炸式增长，新兴电子元件的成本有所下降。其中许多进展尚未应用于海洋，这提供了一个及时的机会，使最优先的海洋科学研究问题与前所未有的地球化学和生物学相关时空尺度上的使能技术相匹配（从而增强观测者，建模者，并直接吸引公众对海洋学过程的兴趣）。在这里，我们将新兴技术应用于沿海生物地球化学过程，其规模能够通过开发负担得起的沿海观测平台和负担得起的新传感器来激发研究人员和当地公民团体。我们优先考虑植根于假设驱动的科学的基础海洋学研究问题，这些问题将受益于传感器，仪器，以及技术转让方面的进步和发展，以解决海洋环境采样不足的问题。这项研究将建立在一种新的，但经过验证的技术基础上，该技术使用开源硬件组件和自定义软件脚本，可以由高中和本科生，环境管理组织或精通技术的公民科学家进行组装，测试，部署和维护，从而促进对STEM领域的兴趣。这项工作将改进、扩大和加速低成本无线沿海观测平台的开发和部署，特别是扩大到对监测和评估最适用于公共利益的过程至关重要的目标参数：沿海淹没、潮汐变化、滋扰性洪水、温度、盐度、溶解氧、叶绿素、浊度和气象数据。Deployment将专注于最强大的负担得起的研究级仪器和低成本传感器，以扩大网络并吸引更大的社区基础。
