WELCOME TO OCEAN ANALYTICA

Our vision is a world where ocean interventions are designed from good systems science and biogeochemical data — not good intentions and wishful thinking.

“Growing scientific evidence indicates an imminent tipping point for ocean systems. But the biogeochemical data needed to inform a cogent response does not exist. Our mission is to generate that data — and fast.”

Will Lewis, Founder, Executive Director, Ocean Analytica

AN IMMINENT
TIPPING POINT

Growing scientific evidence indicates an imminent tipping point for ocean-human ecosystems — and the ongoing barrage of ‘forever chemicals’ could trigger its collapse.

“13 out of 14 Blue Economy sectors have interactions resulting in ‘unidirectional negative impact’ on ocean ecosystems1. This is not ‘sustainable’ by any definition. Our purpose is to accelerate truly ethical ocean governance, as quickly as possible.”

Steve Seager, Strategy Director, Ocean Analytica

A COLLECTIVE FAILURE
TO ACT

To date, there has been little acknowledgement of the worsening ocean systems crisis — and effectively zero data generated to inform a cogent collective response.

It took nearly two decades of self described “fierce negotiations” for The United Nations High Seas Treaty to get signed. We cannot afford to wait another two decades for data on the current state of the oceans to be generated.

BRINGING ML TO OCEAN SYSTEMS

Our novel tech can quickly and cost-effectively generate millions of biogeochemical data points each day — exponentially more than currently available — making the application of machine learning (ML) and other techniques viable for the first time in history.

ARE YOU A ‘LIKE MIND’ WITH A DEEP SYSTEMS HEART?

If you’ve experienced frustration, anxiety and even anger with decision-making about ocean governance in both public and private sectors over the decades, trust us, you are not alone.

A growing number of folk are deciding that enough is enough. The oceans are a trans-generational legacy.  We are ethically and duty bound to be good ancestors.

We have a plan. And we need as many like minds on board as we can — from citizen scientists to data geeks, anthropologists to policy and governance experts. Feel free to say hello at info@oceananalytica.org.
