Collaborative Sampling and Imaging of Phytoplankton Communities by Two Long‐Range Autonomous Underwater Vehicles Using Acoustic Tracking and Messaging

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 1861-1870, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Collaborative operation of multiple autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) can effectively achieve scientific goals that are hard to achieve by independently operated vehicles. Some science payloads are large, expensive, and need to be installed in the vehicle's nose cone. A vehicle can only carry one such payload.

First AUV and ROV investigation of seismogenic faults in the Alboran Sea (Western Meditarranean) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In May-June 2015 we carried out the SHAKE cruise on board the RV “Sarmiento de Gamboa” the first in situ investigation using state-of-the-art underwater vehicles, the AUVs “AsterX” and “IdefX” (IFREMER, France) and the ROV “Max Rover” (HCMR, Greece ...

Fine‐Scale Structure and Kinematics of an Active Submarine Strike‐Slip Fault From Micro‐Bathymetric Mapping and Analog Modeling: The North Alfeo Fault Offshore Catania (Eastern Sicily)

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Southern Italy and eastern Sicily have been the site of several destructive historical earthquakes. Here at the junction between the western edge of the Calabrian subduction zone and the Malta Escarpment several strike‐slip faults have been mapped, which may be the surface expression of the lateral slab tear fault and are candidate sources for

Optimal trajectory generation in ocean flows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
In this paper it is shown that Lagrangian Coherent Structures (LCS) are useful in determining near optimal trajectories for autonomous underwater gliders in a dynamic ocean environment.

Characterizing the Unique Chemical Imprint of On‐Axis, Lower‐Temperature Hydrothermal Flow to the Deep Ocean (Southern East Pacific Rise, 16.5°–18.0°S)

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract In addition to high‐temperature vents, lower‐temperature flow (LTF) (<300°C) is abundant along mid‐ocean ridges and contributes globally‐important fluxes of heat and water along with largely‐unconstrained geochemical influences on the ocean. We examined the impact of on‐axis LTF on the chemical composition of the overlying water column (<40 m ...
