MARE:
Applied Research & Exploration (MARE) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that uses science-based marine conservation efforts to help protect and restore the ocean’s invaluable, yet threatened resources. Using cost-effective and innovative deepwater robotic technology and data analysis expertise, MARE assesses changes in marine life and habitat over time to inform ocean management and support wild sustainable fisheries for future generations.

About Dirk Rosen:
Dirk is the founder and Executive Director of Marine Applied Research and Exploration (MARE). He has 25+ years of deepwater vehicle design, build and operations experience with remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) and manned submersibles. He has led or co-led 20 ROV surveys assessing marine protected areas (MPAs), exploring deepwater National Marine Sanctuary sites, recovering lost science equipment and and evaluating the impacts of fishing gear. Dirk founded MARE in 2003 as a not-for- profit research organization to apply underwater technologies with science to answer marine ecosystem questions. To that end, he co-convened an international workshop in Monterey to define the best and most economical application(s) for the various visual underwater survey tools. Prior to starting MARE, Dirk was president of Deep Ocean Engineering, test pilot for all three Deep Rover 1,000 meter-rated manned submersibles, and a designer/operator of the Phantom and Bandit Remotely Operated Vehicle systems, (of which more than 500 were built). Later at Hawkes Ocean Technologies he was the project manager for the 11,000 meter rated Challenger, a manned submersible designed to go to the deepest point in the ocean, the Marianas Trench. He serves as the engineering reviewer for California’s Resources Agency Sea Grant Advisory Panel.
