This project is conducting a 2-year baseline survey with a pair of gliders deployed in each season, and a 3rd glider deployed three times per year to fill coverage gaps in the seasonal glider deployments from the onset of seasonal stratification associated with the Cold Pool formation in the spring to the physical breakdown in the fall. This glider deployment is the first of three gap-fill missions this year. The gliders are integrated 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.
