IMOS is part of Australia’s National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS). Research infrastructure refers to the facilities, equipment, resources, and skilled workforce that underpin cutting-edge research and innovation in Australia. Researchers across many institutions can access the infrastructure, ensuring equitable and common access across the country, from our regions to our cities.
Principal participants include the Bureau of Meteorology, Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) and the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO).
