StatusCompleted
SummaryThis project supports the deployment and realtime data delivery of autonomous underwater gliders in the coastal ocean to better
resolve and understand essential ocean features and processes that contribute to hurricane intensification or weakening prior to
making landfall. This is a partnership between NOAA Ocean and Atmospheric Research (OAR) through the Atlantic Oceanographic and
Meteorological Laboratory (AOML) and Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS) regional associations such as MARACOOS, SECOORA,
CariCOOS and institutions including the University of Puerto Rico, University of the Virgin Islands, Skidaway Institute of
Oceanography, University of Delaware, and Rutgers University. The goal of the project is to provide realtime data for ocean
model validation and assimilation throughout hurricane season. This project is supported by the Disaster Recovery Act. The
glider was deployed out of Tuckerton, NJ and will transect E to an offshore waypoint north of Carteret Canyon, then transect SSW
to Wilmington Canyon, then NW back to Tuckerton, NJ as the battery pack allows. This real-time dataset contains CTD, chlorphyll
a, CDOM and optical backscatter measurements
