TAILIEUCHUNG - Geography and Oceanography - Chapter 19

Autonomous underwater vehicle – a robot!Flies by changing its buoyancy – takes on water, becomes heavy and sinks – wings turn vertical motion into forward motion – expels water, becomes light and rises – flies saw tooth pattern through the ocean – from the surface to 3 m off bottom (200 m max) | Using Gliders to Monitor Oregon’s Coastal Ocean OSU Glider Group: Kipp Shearman, Jack Barth, Anatoli Erofeev, Tristan Peery, Justin Brodersen and Laura Rubiano-Gomez Autonomous Underwater Gliders Describe the OSU glider operations What are we learning? The Future of Ocean Observing Kipp Shearman College of Oceanic & Atmospheric Sciences Oregon State University What’s a glider? Autonomous underwater vehicle – a robot! Flies by changing its buoyancy takes on water, becomes heavy and sinks wings turn vertical motion into forward motion expels water, becomes light and rises flies saw tooth pattern through the ocean from the surface to 3 m off bottom (200 m max) Slow, but can stay out a long time ½ - 1 knot 3-4 week endurance GPS for positioning Communicates to home by Iridium satellite phone Collects same data you would on a research vessel at a fraction of the cost Research vessel: approx. $20K/day Glider: $100K to buy + $200/day (batteries + communications + techs) 400 days of glider operation: 400 days x $20K/day – ($100K+400 days x $200/day) = $ million saved!
