Autonomous Ocean Profiler

Abstract

During this period, activity focused on three tasks: continued testing and improvement of the basic ALACE float which will do the profiling; preliminary selection of an appropriate set of sensors from which at least sound speed profiles can be determined; development of an improved controller to handle the data stream. Keywords: Oceanographic/Acoustic equipment; Autonomous Lagrangian Circulation Explorer (ALACE) float; Autonomous measuring systems, Oceanographic measurements; Oceanographic data acquisition.
