Autonomous adaptive environmental assessment and feature tracking via autonomous underwater vehicles
... In collecting data with AUVs, we have an AUV moving through the water in space and time and we want to know: where (or when) is feature X? Up until recently, AUVs have not had the ability to react to environmental variations in realtime. Many AUVs are used for environmental monitoring, but the data ...

Effects of global warming on oceans
Global warming can affect sea levels, coastlines, ocean acidification, ocean currents, seawater, sea surface temperatures, tides, the sea floor, weather, and trigger several changes in ocean bio-geochemistry; all of these affect the functioning of a society.
