SummaryDeployment of a Littoral Battlespace Sensing (LBS) glider owned and operated by the Naval Oceanographic Office (NAVOCEANO). LBS
gliders collect temperature and salinity profiles in the water column. These gliders were provided and operated by the Naval
Oceanographic Office (NAVOCEANO) and are part of a larger effort to deploy and operate over 100 gliders simultaneously. Data
collected by these Littoral Battlespace Sensing (LBS) gliders is assimilated for use in underwater ocean forecasts that support
a wide range of naval operations. The glider was deployed off shore of Miami, FL and will traverse north in and out of the
Gulfstream current. This real-time dataset includes CTD profiles
