Effect of water current on underwater glider velocity and range [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
An autonomous underwater glider speed and range is influenced by water currents. This is compounded by a weak actuation system for controlling its movement.

Optimal path shape for range-only underwater target localization using a Wave Glider [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Underwater localization using acoustic signals is one of the main components in a navigation system for an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) as a more accurate alternative to dead-reckoning techniques.

Closing the sea surface mixed layer temperature budget from in situ observations alone: Operation Advection during BoBBLE [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Sea surface temperature (SST) is a fundamental driver of tropical weather systems such as monsoon rainfall and tropical cyclones. However, understanding of the factors that control SST variability is lacking, especially during the monsoons when in situ ...

Autonomous Underwater Gliders

open access: yes, 2009
Autonomous Underwater Vehicles are only now being marketed as robust commercial vehicles for many industries, and of these vehicles underwater gliders are becoming the new tool for oceanographers. Satellites have provided scientists and marine specialists with measurements of the sea surface such as temperature since the late 1970s, and data via ...

Tertiary Waves Measured during 2017 Pohang Earthquake Using an Underwater Glider

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
An underwater glider equipped with a hydrophone observed the acoustic sounds of an earthquake that occurred on 15 November 2017 05:29:32 (UTC) in the Pohang area. The underwater glider observed the earthquake sounds after 19 s (05:29:51) at approximately

The surface diurnal warm layer in the Indian Ocean during CINDY/DYNAMO [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A surface diurnal warm layer is diagnosed from Seaglider observations, and develops on half the days in the CINDY/DYNAMO Indian Ocean experiment. The diurnal warm layer occurs on days of high solar radiation flux (>80 W m-2) and low wind speed (

Assessing the potential of autonomous submarine gliders for ecosystem monitoring across multiple trophic levels (plankton to cetaceans) and pollutants in shallow shelf seas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A combination of scientific, economic, technological and policy drivers is behind a recent upsurge in the use of marine autonomous systems (and accompanying miniaturized sensors) for environmental mapping and monitoring.

Antarctic krill likely avoid underwater gliders

open access: yesDeep Sea Research Part I: Oceanographic Research Papers, 2022
Abstract The extent to which marine species avoid survey vessels is the subject of considerable debate, with stimuli such as noise and pressure waves receiving particular attention. By some estimates, avoidance behaviour is a major bias in the assessment of pelagic species distribution and density. Surveyors of the marine environment are increasingly

Dynamics Modeling and Analysis of an Underwater Glider with Dual-Eccentric Attitude Regulating Mechanism Using Dual Quaternions

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
The underwater glider has difficulty accessing the complex and narrow hadal trench for observation, which is affected by its limited regulation capability of pitch angle (−45°~45°).

A concept design for an ultra-long-range survey class AUV [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Gliders and flight-style Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are used to perform perform autonomous surveys of large areas of open ocean. Glider missions are characterized by their profiling flight pattern, slow speed, long range (1000s of km) and many
