Research on the characteristics of wave observation of wave glider
Abstract Wave glider is a new class of ocean mobile observation vehicle. It is a new applied research direction that using wave glider for wave observation. Currently, wave observation is usually performed at fixed points by using wave buoys, the research on using wave glider for navigational observations is still rare, and the ...

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

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