Benefit assessment of glider adaptive sampling in the Ligurian Sea
(CMRE, 2014/01)The benefits of piloting a glider during a 6-day period via an adaptive sampling procedure in a 80 × 60 km2 marine area are assessed under a fully operational framework. The glider trajectory was adapted to reduce the ocean ... -
Maritime surveillance with multiple over-the-horizon HFSW radars: an overview of recent experimentation
(CMRE, 2019/06)This paper briefly explores the high-frequency surface-wave (HFSW) radar technology in general, and Wellen radar (WERA) in more detail. Then it describes the multitarget tracking data fusion (MTTDF) network architecture ... -
Oceanographic field estimates from remote sensing and glider fleets
(CMRE, 2014/01)This work investigates the merging of temperature observations from a glider fleet and remote sensing, based on a field experiment conducted in an extended coastal region offshore La Spezia, Italy, in August 2010. Functional ... -
Physical and dynamical characteristics of a 300 m-deep anticyclonic eddy in the Ligurian Sea (Northwest Mediterranean Sea): evidence from a multi-platform sampling strategy
(CMRE, 2019/06)We describe the physical and dynamical characteristics of a mesoscale anticyclonic eddy observed in August 2013 over the shelf-break region of the northeastern sector of the Ligurian Sea, between the northeastern edge of ... -
A relocatable EnKF ocean data assimilation tool for heterogeneous observational networks
(CMRE, 2019/06)This study investigates the performance of a multivariate Ensemble Kalman Filter coupled with a relocatable limited-area configuration of the Regional Ocean Modeling System to predict ocean states by assimilating a ... -
Simple instrumentation for measuring temperature gradients at the sea-air interface, including the results of Winter 1964/65 measurements
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1965/07)Very little information is available on the temperature differences in the first several centimetres of air above the sea surface and the first few centimetres of water below the sea surface. Data of this kind are important ... -
Sound attenuation between 200 and 10,000 cps measured along single paths
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1965/09)In the deep Mediterranean basins, the water is perfectly isothermal below 400 m, and the deep refracted ray gives clear signals up to 40 km, with a spreading loss free from any frequency-dependent effect. Exploiting this ... -
The temperature structure in the upper layers of the Ligurian Sea and its seasonal variations
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1962/05)Water temperature measurements in the Ligurian Sea down to depths of 150 meters and meteorological data connected with these measurements for the period July 1960 to October 1961 are presented in the form of graphs and ... -
The temperature structure in the upper layers of the Ligurian Sea and its seasonal variations: supplement to SACLANTCEN technical report no. 8
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1964/04)Water temperature measurements, down to depths of 150 meters, and metereological data connected with these measurements carried out in t 1e Ligurian Sea in May and November 1962, are presented in the form of graphs and ...
