Acoustic Seaglider(Trademark) for Beaked Whale Detection

Abstract

This effort exists within a group dedicated to the use of autonomous underwater vehicles, and buoyancy-driven gliders in particular, to support Navy missions. The group generally uses the Seaglider, developed at the Applied Physics Laboratory of the University of Washington (APL-UW), and develops or adapts instruments and glider behavior to support specific mission requirements. This group is informally called the Applied Seaglider Group, whose acronym, ASG, is also used to describe the Applied Seaglider itself. This report describes our efforts as part of the ONR Passive Autonomous Acoustic Monitoring (PAAM) program.
