Euro-Argo
Main activity
The international Argo program operates a global network of more than 3800 autonomous profiling floats that measure in real time the temperature and salinity of the upper 2000m of the ocean. Euro-Argo is the European contribution to the international network. The Euro-Argo ERIC has been set-up in 2014. It is coordinated by France and gathers 11 European countries. The TGIR Euro-Argo is made of the french contribution to the ERIC coordination and the national component Argo-France. Argo-France activities include: coordination, float procurements and deployments, data management and link with users

A pioneer in ocean science, IFREMER's cutting-edge research is grounded in sustainable development and open science.His vision is to advance science, expertise and innovation to protect and restore the ocean, sustainably use marine resources to benefit societ, create and share ocean data, information & knowledge.
With more than 1,500 personnel spread along the French coastline in more than 20 sites, the institute explores the 3 great oceans: the Indian, Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
Founded in 1984, IFREMER is a French public organization and its budget approximates 240 million euros. It is operating under the joint authority of the French Ministry for Higher Education, Research and Innovation, the French Ministry for the Ecological and Solidary Transition, and the French Ministry of Agriculture and Food.

The National Center for Scientific Research
The IRD is a key French player on the international development agenda. It is based on an original model: equitable scientific partnerships with developing countries, primarily those in the intertropical regions and the Mediterranean area.
Sorbonne University is a multidisciplinary, research-intensive and world-class academic institution. Firmly rooted in the heart of Paris, it is committed to the success of its students and devoted to meeting the scientific challenges of the 21st century.
The National Center for Scientific Research, or CNRS, is a public organization under the responsibility of the French Ministry of Education and Research. Founded in 1939 by governmental decree, the CNRS aims to:
- Evaluate and carry out all research capable of advancing knowledge and bringing social, cultural, and economic benefits for society, - Contribute to the promotion and application of research results, - Develop scientific information, - Support research training, - Participate in the analysis of the national and international scientific climate and its potential for evolution in order to develop a national policy.
