The Pivers Island Coastal Observatory turned 10-years old today! What started out as an undergraduate summer project focused on nearshore ocean acidification, has blossomed into a comprehensive microbial and biogeochemical time-series with more than 1000 time points (and still going) and with extensions to the open ocean. We look forward to another decade of contributions to microbial oceanography using PICO as a sentinel of local and global change.
