Martha's Vineyard Coastal Observatory (MVCO) is the ocean observing system off the Massachusetts coast that WHOI has operated for a decade. MVCO sends data via cable to scientists ashore in real time. Biologists Heidi Sosik (top), MVCO chief scientist, and Rob Olson examine an automated underwater microscope they developed that operates at MVCO.
