Member States28 Countries operate floats, and Argo is reaching new record with 3918 active floats.

Member StatesActually more than 150 additional floats are registered but no data is available yet. Argo has certainly more than 4000 units in the ocean.

Age (inactive floats)Spatial Analysis
We can try identify cold/hot spots where floats seem surviving shorter (blue - marginal sreas, high latitudes) or longer (red -Karahoa deployments ?)
