Canada Basin Acoustic Glider Experiment (CABAGE): An Arctic Acoustic Propagation and Scattering, Internal Wave, and Low-Frequency Navigation Experiment in the Canada Basin

Abstract

Funds are provided to carry out an experiment in the Arctic Ocean using autonomous ocean gliders to collect water column and ocean current data in the Canadian Basin in conjunction with the CANAPE acostic propagation experiment. The effort will include two deployments of Seagliders, one a three-week experiment and the other a ten-week experiment, to collect acoustic and environmental data and horizontal and vertical shear while simultaneously exploring the performance of the low frequency navigation system.
