The RHIB, the Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler, and beautiful cumulus clouds above. The RHIB carves through the water and is a very stable boat.

Note for educators: The TAO/TRITON array continues to collect data and the Ka'imimoana continues to maintain the array. Please use the TAO web site, in conjunction with this web site, the lesson plans, daily logs, the videos, and the photos to educate your students about climate, El Niño, and scientific research in general.

Consider this web site, as well as the EPIC web site, a resource for teaching your students.

Many organizations and countries are involved in supporting the
TAO/TRITON Array in the Equatorial Pacific.
Primary U. S. funding is provided by The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
