In Florida, protecting the environment through sustainable activities is a priority. A world-class tourist destination known for its beaches and vibrant urban scene, Miami is close to national treasures such as Everglades National Park and Biscayne National Park, an underwater park filled with coral reefs. As part of its marine services, Integral brings leading-edge technologies, including techniques for monitoring water quality, and a full suite of predictive modeling capabilities. Integral also provides state-of-the-science analyses and consulting to assess potential chemicals of concern in the marine environment. The firm’s services span sediment and contaminant transport studies, oceanographic and coastal studies, marine renewable energy studies, and environmental risk and damage assessments.
Integral offers advanced technologies, which include in situ instrumentation using optical sensors (OPTICS) to support high-frequency determination of suspended solids and dissolved and particulate contaminant concentrations over extended time periods. Other techniques include SEDflume, for critical information on site-specific sediment transport, and sediment profile imaging (SPI), a survey method that rapidly maps large areas of the seafloor.
Founded in 2002, Integral is a leader in providing innovative solutions to client challenges. Past Integral projects in the Florida area include litigation on Florida v. Georgia and technical support in response to the Deepwater Horizon incident in the Gulf of Mexico. For more information on Integral and its services, contact Dr. Flanary at (786) 485-2673, or cflanary@integral-corp.com.
