MPC-Based Collaborative Control of Sail and Rudder for Unmanned Sailboat

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
In the traditional motion control method of an unmanned sailboat, the sail and rudder are divided into two independent controllers. The sail is used to obtain the thrust and the rudder is used to adjust the yaw angle.

Sea surface salinity and the ocean structure in the tropical Indian Ocean

open access: yes, 2020
The variability of the tropical Indian Ocean (TIO) is crucial to the global water cycle and heat transportation. At the seasonal time scale, the variability of the TIO is closely related to the monsoon circulation.

Sustaining observations in the polar oceans [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2014
Abstract Polar oceans present a unique set of challenges to sustained observations. Sea ice cover restricts navigation for ships and autonomous measurement platforms alike, and icebergs present a hazard to instruments deployed in the upper ocean and in shelf seas.

Ocean observing systems demystified

open access: yesOCEANS 2009, 2009
An ocean observing system could be defined as a set of independent elements that interact to form a whole for the purpose of observing ocean data. But, what is a system? Is a sensor a system? Is a buoy a system? Is a collection of stations a system?
