After an exciting start into the cruise today’s focus is on our Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs). These underwater-robots transact the water column in a zick-zack pattern, and provide us with a large variety of data, including videos from an upward-looking camera (stay tuned). Since our CTD-casts from yesterday revealed strong spatial variability on scales larger than 5nm, we hope that the AUVs fills in the gaps on smaller scales.
