A-TIRMA G2: An Oceanic Autonomous Sailboat
This paper describes a new design of a 2 meter LOA (Length Over All) autonomous sailboat conceived for sailing in an ample set of weather
A Virtual Wind Sensor Based on a Particle Filter
Wind sensors are essential components of any sailboat, meanwhile they are also one of its most compromised and exposed elements. This paper introduces a novel
Remote sensing of the El Hierro submarine volcanic eruption plume
Submarine volcanic eruptions took place at the island El Hierro (Canary Islands) between October 2011 and March 2012. The event produced plumes of discoloured waters
Magma emission rates from shallow submarine eruptions using airborne thermal imaging
The effusion rate is the most important parameter to gather when a volcanic eruption occurs, because it controls the way in which a lava body
Lack of impact of the El Hierro (Canary Islands) submarine volcanic eruption on the local phytoplankton community
The eruption of a submarine volcano south of El Hierro Island (Canary Islands) in October 2011 led to major physical and chemical changes in the
Lagrangian coherent structure assisted path planning for transoceanic autonomous underwater vehicle missions
Transoceanic Gliders are Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) for which there is a developing and expanding range of applications in open-seas research, technology and underwater clean
The Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service Ocean State Report
The Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service (CMEMS) Ocean State Report (OSR) provides an annual report of the state of the global ocean and European regional
Automatic identification of oil spills on satellite images
A fully automated system for the identification of possible oil spills present on Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellite images based on artificial intelligence fuzzy logic
A dynamical systems perspective for a real-time response to a marine oil spill
This paper discusses the combined use of tools from dynamical systems theory and remote sensing techniques and shows how they are effective instruments which may greatly contribute to the decision
