MATOS - Mid-Atlantic Acoustic Telemetry Observation System

Project Title: SERC Acoustic Telemetry Array

MATOS Project Code: SERC1

Data Type: Deployment

Project Duration: August 2013 - on-going

Project Description: The Smithsonian Environmental Research Center is engaged in acoustic telemetry projects on a variety of coastal and estuarine species through the Smithsonian Movement of Life Initiative. This project integrates the data for all of our receiver arrays currently deployed from Maryland to Florida. Array deployments target waterways local to our site in Edgewater, Maryland and also fill gaps between major receiver arrays along the US Atlantic coast.
