Presenter: Professor Timmy Gambin, University of Malta

For over an entire decade, the Sicilian Superintendence of the Sea together with RPM Nautical, has explored the seabed off the Egadi Islands off Trapani. This ambitious and unique project produced some incredible results including, but not limited to, the discovery of numerous bronze rams. Despite the success of the first phases of the project it became clear that a new approach was necessary to survey the site in a more efficient manner. Since 2019, the University of Malta has partnered the Superintendence and RPM - specifically through the deployment of its Automated Underwater Vehicle. This talk will introduce the battle of the Egadi Islands and will also share some highlights and discoveries from the initial phases of the project. The main part of the presentation will cover the methodologies developed in the context of this project, how these complimented existing work and what results have been achieved so far.

Guest: Justin Shapiro, Former Applications Engineer – Slocum Glider, Teledyne Webb Researchh

This episode is the second in a special four-part series on “Silbo", Teledyne Webb Research's autonomous underwater glider that recently made the first ever circumnavigation of the Atlantic Ocean by an unmanned underwater vehicle. In this episode of Marine Tech Talk, we are joined by Justin Shapiro, Former Applications Engineer – Slocum Glider, Teledyne Webb Research. Justin discusses the recovery of Silbo in Ireland, the training course that the glider team was able to arrange there while Silbo was being cleaned up and refit, and then the planning and work that was done during leg three of the journey in the Canary Islands.

For more information on Slocum Gliders, visit our website at www.teledynemarine.com/slocum-glider. There is a press release on the website that also details the journey as well as a recorded webinar on the journey that can be found on our LINK Webinar channel. For more information on how Slocum gliders are helping researchers and commercial customers explore and understand the ocean, you can google Slocum Gliders or search Twitter for posts from our many customers.

Guest: Dr. John Howe, Senior Lecturer in Marine Geology, Scottish Association for Marine Science

In this episode of Marine Tech Talk, we are joined by Dr. John Howe a Senior Lecturer in marine geology at the Scottish Association of Marine Sciences (SAMS). His expertise is in fjord geomorphology and glaciomarine sedimentation. He is the operator of a UK Gavia AUV - Freya, and has participated in more than 30 cruises to regions including the Arctic, Svalbard, Indian Ocean, Papua New Guinea and the Chilean Patagonia. John discusses several of his recent trips with the Gavia AUV and the advantages that Autonomous Underwater Vehicles provide for researchers.

Studying Coastal Upwellings in Chile with Unmanned Gliders

Mon, 14 Dec 2020 20:02:54 GMT

Guest: Maria Valladares Antón, AquaPacífico Aquaculture Innovation Center at the Universidad Catholica de Norte

In this fall series of podcasts, we introduce some of the winners and general entrants from the 2020 Teledyne Marine Photo Contest. Teledyne's annual Photo/ Data Contest concluded with over 80 qualified submissions that helped the company donate over $1200 to Save the Children as part of a charitable giving campaign.

In this episode we talk to Maria Valladares Antón, an oceanography technician and glider pilot at AquaPacífico Aquaculture Innovation Center at the Universidad Catholica de Norte. Maria submitted photos taken while deploying a Slocum glider in La Herradura Bay in Coquimbo, just north of Chile. Maria and an integrated team of scientists from other universities have been using the Slocum glider to study coastal upwellings and other oceanographic processes in the waters around Chile.

To learn more about the work that Maria and her colleagues are doing you can visit the AquaPacifico website at www.aquapacifico.cl. You can also find them on twitter at @AquaPacificoCL and on facebook at https://www.facebook.com/centroaquapacifico/

In this fall series of podcasts, we introduce some of the winners and general entrants from the 2020 Teledyne Marine Photo Contest. Teledyne's annual Photo/ Data Contest concluded with over 80 qualified submissions that helped the company donate over $1200 to Save the Children as part of a charitable giving campaign.

In this episode we speak with Dr. Art Trembanis, a professor at the University of Delaware, who develops and utilizes advanced autonomous systems to map and explore oceans and lakes around the world filling in blank spots on the map. Art's contest submission was a photo of a Teledyne Gavia AUV underwater in Bermuda, preparing to so some survey work around the mesophotic reefs. Art's submission won him an Honorable Mention in this year's photo contest.

Circumnavigation of the Atlantic with an AUV

Thu, 27 Aug 2020 16:30:00 GMT

Join our host, Ben Allsup, for a closer look at the recent completion of a 4-year journey that circumnavigated the Atlantic Ocean in four legs, a first for an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV). The Slocum Glider “Silbo” was deployed in 2016 from Cape Cod and returned from its epic adventure in late June of 2020. Learn about each leg of the journey, the glider’s purpose, maintenance of this long duration glider, and the many programs and lives it touched along the way. From testing new equipment and software, challenging the models for long duration piloting, collecting hurricane data, and participating in the Challenger Glider mission, Silbo’s journey was action packed!
