The new and emerging use of Slocum gliders in oceanographic data collection has brought about a progressive new way to record in-situ oceanic data. This piece of technology has been used by the Rutgers University Department of Marine Science through over 400 deployments, including a deployment during Hurricane Sandy in late October 2012. Data being collected during this deployment was done by Slocum...
Underwater gliders are a disruptive technology capable of transforming our understanding of the ocean. Efficient vehicle flight is critical for proper data collection, allowing successful completion of project goals. Slocum glider flights in less than 15 m of water have been only marginally successful, as use of deep water flight coefficients disables proper inflection at shallow depths. Groundings...
Gliderpalooza represented a grass-roots coordinated field demonstration of ocean observing technologies spanning the eastern seaboard of North America. The overarching goal was to coordinate disparate ocean research efforts, funded by disparate programs from a variety of agencies to demonstrate continental scale coordination of various ocean observing technologies to sample ecologically relevant scales...
