This project is conducting a seasonal baseline survey with a pair of gliders deployed in each season over two years with a full complement of available sensors to simultaneously map oceanographic and ecological variables. This glider is equipped with a CTD, a WETLabs FLBBCD ECO puck configured for simultaneous chlorophyll fluorescence and optical backscatter measurements, an Aanderaa Optode for measuring dissolved oxygen, a DMON passive acoustic sensor for the detection of marine mammals, and an Rx-LIVE fish telemetry receiver to track tagged species moving through the region. This approximately 21- to 30-day deployment out of Sandy Hook, New Jersey will run a zig-zag transect along the coast of New Jersey, in and around current and planned offshore wind lease areas, with a planned recovery out of Tuckerton, New Jersey. The real-time dataset contains CTD, chlorophyll a, CDOM, optical backscatter, and dissolved oxygen measurements. The display of baleen whale occurrence information will be available in near real-time on the Robots4Whales website http://robots4whales.whoi.edu. Vemco acoustically-derived data will be processed post-deployment.
