2024 Hurricane Glider Mission in the Caribbean Region Enhances Understanding of Ocean Heatwaves and Storm Intensification
The 2024 Hurricane Glider Mission in the Caribbean region has successfully concluded, providing valuable insights into hurricane research. Autonomous underwater gliders collected oceanographic data, including the thermal structure and salinity profiles of upper ocean layers, which are key factors in understanding tropical cyclone intensification. Nineteen (19) gliders were deployed across the Caribbean Sea and tropical… Read More
