Mapping semi-regular autonomous underwater vehicle glider observations onto a cross-shelf section

Creator:

Peery, Andrew Tristan

Abstract:

Two Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Gliders have alternated continuous sampling of a 45-nautical mile transect line (the Newport Hydrographic Line) across the Oregon continental shelf since April, 2006. Strong currents (>25cm/s) push the gliders off their trajectories as they survey this transect line, preventing them from sampling the historically occupied stations...
