Glider-Based Passive Acoustic Monitoring Techniques in the Southern California Region

Abstract

The long-term goal of this project is to develop technology for autonomous glider-based passive acoustic monitoring of marine mammal presence within the southern California offshore region. Gliders provide a new approach for autonomous monitoring of both the presence of marine mammals, and of other environmental parameters. They may contribute to Navy environmental compliance, as well as to basic scientific studies of marine mammals.
