February 2016 - The first Argo floats were deployed in 1999, marking the start of the international Argo programme to build a global array of profiling floats throughout the world's oceans. In 2007 Argo met its initial goal of around 3,000 operating floats providing near global coverage, which continues today. The measurements from Argo have revolutionised our ability to observe the oceans and their effect on our climate.
