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 Lewes, DE and will transect offshore to the shelf break, south along the break then back toward Lewes
DE, with an inshore point at about 28 meters depth. This real-time dataset contains CTD measurements from a Seabird Scientific
un-pumped CTD
