Remote collection of microorganisms at two depths in a freshwater lake using an unmanned surface vehicle (USV). [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Microorganisms are ubiquitous in freshwater aquatic environments, but little is known about their abundance, diversity, and transport. We designed and deployed a remote-operated water-sampling system onboard an unmanned surface vehicle (USV, a remote-controlled boat) to collect and characterize microbes in a freshwater lake in ...
