The Barriers and Opportunities of Effective Underwater Autonomous Swarms Open
This chapter discusses the concept of swarms of autonomous robotic platforms in the underwater environment. The submarine domain is made particularly complex to operate in by the high level of absorption of radio waves by water. There are …

Polar Data Forum IV – An Ocean of Opportunities Open
This paper reports on the Hackathon Sessions organised at the Polar Data Forum IV (PDF IV) (20–24 September 2021), during which 351 participants from 50 different countries discussed collaboratively about the latest developments in polar d…

Cold Ocean Cavity and Weak Basal Melting of the Sørsdal Ice Shelf Revealed by Surveys Using Autonomous Platforms Open
Basal melting of ice shelves is inherently difficult to quantify through direct observations, yet it is a critical factor controlling Antarctic mass balance and global sea‐level rise. While much research attention is paid to larger ice she…

Field trials of an energy‐aware mission planner implemented on an autonomous surface vehicle Open
Mission planning for autonomous marine vehicles is nontrivial due to the dynamic and uncertain nature of the marine environment. Communication can be low‐bandwidth and is not always guaranteed, so the operator must rely on the vehicles to …

High-resolution acoustic surveys with diving gliders come at a cost of aliasing moving targets Open
Underwater gliders are autonomous robots that follow a slow, see-saw path and may be deployed for months on end. Gliders have a dramatically lower payload capacity than research vessels and are thus limited to more simple instrumentation. …

Drift, drag and deterioration: mapping the fate of large ice hazards Open
Floating ice hazards are a risk to safe navigation in both the Arctic and the Southern Ocean as a result of changing ice conditions and increased marine traffic in recent years. These hazards include icebergs and ice islands (a type of ice…
