Exploring Ocean Biogeochemistry Using a Lab-on-Chip Phosphate Analyser on an Underwater Glider
The ability to make measurements of phosphate (PO43–) concentrations at temporal and spatial scales beyond those offered by shipboard observations offers new opportunities for investigations of the marine phosphorus cycle.

Identification of the Dynamics of Biofouled Underwater Gliders [PDF]
Marine growth has been observed to cause a drop in the horizontal and vertical velocities of underwater gliders, thus making them unresponsive and needing immediate recovery. Currently, no strategies exist to correctly identify the onset of marine growth for gliders and only limited datasets of biofouled hulls exist.

ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

While performing underwater observation and detection, the underwater acoustic glider needs to finish the current profile glide to float to the surface for information exchange and thus fails to realize real-time data information return. In this paper, a

Numerical investigation on the hydrodynamic characteristics of an autonomous underwater glider with different wing layouts [PDF]
An autonomous underwater glider is a self-propelled underwater vehicle which is designed primarily for oceanography. It moves with low speed in saw-tooth pattern and has long endurance.

Abstract Ocean stratification, measured as mixed layer depth (MLD), is an important feature that influences many processes in the ocean; for example, by mediating the fluxes of momentum, heat and crucially key gases such as CO2 and oxygen from the atmosphere into the water column and vice versa. The conventional methods to measure stratification (e.g.,

Surrogate based blended-wing-body underwater glider shape optimization design
In order to improve the design quality and optimization efficiency for blended-wing-body underwater glider(BWBUG) shape design optimization problems, a surrogate-based blended-wing-body underwater glider shape optimization(SBUGSO) framework is proposed ...

Streamlines for Motion Planning in Underwater Currents [PDF]
Motion planning for underwater vehicles must consider the effect of ocean currents. We present an efficient method to compute reachability and cost between sample points in sampling-based motion planning that supports long-range planning over hundreds of
