Autonomous Surface Vehicle for Concurrent Physical and Acoustical Observations of the Upper-Ocean
Abstract
The rapid evolution of the physical properties of the upper ocean expected in regions with strong submesoscale features can lead to complex acoustic propagation effects. However, limited in-situ observations of this rapid evolution make it unclear how to adequate ly parametrize these physical properties of the upper ocean based on the environmental variables. In this proposal, we are requestin g funds for the acquisition of a new SV3 wave glider to be instrumented for atmospheric, surface-wave and upper-ocean research and a coustic instrumentation (active and passive data collection) to support the Atlantis II DRI field programs. This abstract is publicl y releasable.
