This project will provide monitoring of key fish species and habitat features within the planned Ocean Wind site and a nearby control site off the coast of southern New Jersey before, during, and after wind farm construction. This glider is equipped with an Acoustic Zooplankton Fish Profiler (AZFP), an autonomous, low-power echo sounder that possesses the capabilities to study the abundance, distribution, and behavior of various sizes of fishes and large zooplankton throughout the water column over large spatial scales by measuring acoustic backscatter returns with ultrasonic frequencies. This 3-4 week deployment will test the use of gliders for conducting fisheries and ecosystem surveys in and around the Ocean Wind study site.
