The long-term goal is to develop glider-based and autonomous-platform-based marine mammal monitoring for Naval environmental compliance, as well as for basic scientific studies of marine mammals. Autonomous glider-based passive acoustic monitoring of marine mammal presence is particularly needed wit...
