Glider sylvia is deployed on the Virginia shelf and will be flying a triangle covering the shelf waters between Norfolk Canyon and Washington Canyon. This MARACOOS project supports the deployment and realtime data delivery of autonomous underwater gliders in the coastal ocean to better resolve and understand essential ocean features and processes that contribute to hurricane intensification or weakening prior to making landfall. Project partners in 2022 and 2023 include Virginia Institute of Marine Science - William & Mary, University of Delaware, and Rutgers University. This project is supported by NOAA Disaster Supplemental funding.
