What We Do

AZFP-nano Early Career Scientist Contest

ASL's 2025 Award Early Career Scientist Contest

ASL invites applications for the 2025 Early Career Scientist Award to win the use of the new AZFP-nano autonomous acoustic profiler for three months.
The goal of this program is to support early career trainees in the oceanographic and limnological research community by lending, free of charge, a calibrated battery-powered Acoustic Zooplankton Fish Profiler™ (AZFP™)-nano with a 200 kHz single beam transducer for a three-month period along with the technical and analytical support from ASL’s team of experts. This instrument loan program is open to early career scientists and engineers, graduate students, post-doctoral fellows and others involved in aquatic research. The AZFP-nano is a newly developed, autonomous instrument that can gather backscatter data for scientists on a budget.

ASL Introduces the Compact Acoustic Zooplankton Fish Profiler-nano (AZFP-nano)

ASL is proud to announce the Acoustic Zooplankton Fish Profiler (AZFP)-nano to its family of advanced acoustic instruments for aquatic environments. This compact, lightweight, single frequency scientific echosounder is a miniaturized version of the AZFP and is well-suited for applications in challenging environments where size and weight are important considerations. This advanced profiler was developed to measure a wide range of physical and biological parameters including, zooplankton, fish, algae, bubbles and suspended sediments within the water column.
