The Universidad del Caribe responds to the demand for technical support for a workshop with the aim of verify environmental parameters with the use of Technology Applied to Information Registration and GPS, for the monitoring of points of interest, like define the study area, its physical description and its natural context,  operate measuring instruments and apply measurement procedures and create databases and metadata. Likewise, CTD cast were carried out to have a database with future application to mariculture, with the purpose of contributing to the economic development of communities in Quintana Roo through economic diversification and regional cultural identity and promoting fair trade and solidarity that favor the production and consumption of original products.This activities of the Node for the Promotion of the Social and Solidarity Economy (NODESS) called Selva, Mar y Comunidad Pre Registration Folio SINCA_PNSS_20_00009_INAES, made up of the Universidad del Caribe, Directorate of Economic Promotion of the H.

The Universidad del Caribe responds to the demand for technical support for the elaboration of specific bathymetric charts for a polygon of 458 Ha that is located between the Isla Contoy National Park and Cayo Alcatraz. The objective was to make a bathymetric map of the polygon and point out the main characteristics or morphological features. Likewise, CTD cast were carried out to have a database with future application to mariculture, with the purpose of contributing to the economic development of communities in Quintana Roo through economic diversification and regional cultural identity and promoting fair trade and solidarity that favor the production and consumption of original products.This activities of the Node for the Promotion of the Social and Solidarity Economy (NODESS) called Selva, Mar y Comunidad Pre Registration Folio SINCA_PNSS_20_00009_INAES, made up of the Universidad del Caribe, Directorate of Economic Promotion of the H.

Students and researchers at the University of the Caribbean together with members of the Cooperative Sea of ??the Antilles, conducted an oceanographic campaign at the site called cayo Alcatraz, where there are two underwater springs also known as “ojos de agua”. These springs are located within the polygon of the protected area of ??the Mexican Caribbean Biosphere Reserve, to the west of Isla Contoy National Park. The purpose of the campaign was to begin studies of the environmental conditions and reconnaissance of the site. The measuring instruments used were; SonTek CastAway-CTD, and a Gopro Black 7 camera.  were made a set of 12 temperature, salinity, and conductivity profiles. Water samples were also taken for subsequent microbiological analysis.

Near-bottom multibeam bathymetry acquired at the French Antilles volcanic arc between Les Saintes et Dominica islands. High-resolution bathymetry data (1 m/pixel) were acquired by the autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) AsterX, deployed during the 2017 Subsaintes cruise (https://doi.org/10.17600/17001000. The dataset consists of dives #394 through #404, after renavigation of the veichile. This dataset includes both grids of individual dives (bathymetry and backscatter, in GRD format), and mosaics combining these dives in 3 larger grids (GEOTIFF). All grids are provided in WGS 84 projection.

Bathymetry grid, with a pixel resolution of 10 m, from bathymetry data acquired during the 2010 Bathysaintes cruise (https://doi.org/10.17600/10030020). Data were controlled and processed with the Ifremer Caraibes software.

The EUREC4A-OA oceanographic campaign that took place in January-February 2020 in the tropical North-West Atlantic Ocean aboard several research vessels, was a contribution to the broader international research initiative EUREC4A (http://eurec4a.eu/). The cruise was carried out in conjunction with the research vessels L'Atalante (France), Maria S. Merian and Meteor (Germany) and the Ron Brown (USA) as well as with the aircraft and UAV operations and continuous observations from the ground site on the island of Barbados (BCO) and the Saildrone© operations as part of the US ATOMIC project. This dataset is composed of the uCTD measurements obtained from the R/Vs L'Atalante and Maria S. Merian, processed using a toolbox from GEOMAR-PO based on the article from Ullman and Hebert (JAOT, 2014). A secondary quality check is performed by comparing the uCTD measurements with the nearest CTD stations.

This work consisted of making  CTD measurements on the coasts of Isla Mujeres, as well as in the lagoons called "las salinas". The main objective was to have records of temperature and salinity of the Isla Mujeres water bodies . So measurements were made with a Castaway Sontek CTD with a total of 68 measurements. The names of these lagoons "Las salinas" are; Laguna Makax and Salina Chica. The information was analyzed statistically and maps were made in geographic information systems QGIS. The results were that  “Las salinas” found salinity levels between 4.6 PSU and 12 PSU. The Makax lagoon is the body of water that registered higher salinity values ??(38.23 PSU on average) due to its proximity to the sea. The salinity of the sea that surrounds Isla Mujeres is 35.48 PSU on average.
