Development of National research infrastructure as a Bulgarian component of the

Euro ARGO network

BulARGO

BulArgo

• To develop national research infrastructure as a Bulgarian component of the Euro ARGO network.

• To increase sources of the Black Sea in-situ data and to

improve quality of local in-situ products and forecasts

• To promote international collaboration towards establishment of a Black Sea Argo program
