CTD (Conductivity

,

Temperature

, Depth)

Measures

conductivity

, temperature, and pressure of seawater

Some c

an measure

:

salinity of waterphytoplankton in waterSampling takes place one location at a timeSlide5

Coring Devices (Piston or Box)

Collect

ocean sediment and mud samples

(some including phytoplankton)

Used to study ocean

circulation, climate, formation of ore deposits, movements of oceanic plates,

stability

for oil drilling and exploration

Many

types of corers for different depthsPiston

ROVs (Remotely Operated

Vehicles

)

An underwater robot

P

ilot is not in the vehicle, it is controlled by

a

human

on the vessel

Come in all shapes and sizesSlide8

Other types of underwater robotsAutonomous underwater vehicle (no cables)

Seagliders

Buoys

Wave glidersDriftersSlide9

What are Underwater Robots used for?

Scientific research

Collecting

real

time video and physical

samples

of the

marine environment Seafloor

Launch and recovery methods:

All by hand

Mechanically operated bottlesSlide11

Launch and recovery methods: boom

Simple & easy to build & maintain

NOT so easy to control the package!Slide12

LAUNCH AND RECOVERY METHODS: FRAME

Reduces but doesn’t eliminate swing

Requires very skilled operator or

longer processMost can’t get close to the waterSlide13

Launch and recovery methods: Crane arm

Much tighter control

Still requires a skilled operator

Often can’t get close to the waterSlide14

Launch and recovery methods: l.a.r.s

Fully automated

Package fully controlled until

within a few feet of the surface“Heave” compensatedSlide15
