Solomon Sea Ocean Transport from GlidersThe western boundary current of the South Pacific Tropical Gyre flows through the Solomon Sea and then to the equator. The degree to which this flow affects the equatorial zone and global climate depends on its transport of water and heat. These transports have been measured since 2007 by underwater gliders crossing the Sea seasonally to monthly. Ocean temperature and salinity profiles and depth-a

Spray glider data in support of mooring observations from the CORC project in the California Current starting 2007CORC (Consortium on the Ocean\'s Role in Climate) has been making observations of the California Current systems with moorings since 2008. In support of these mooring deployments, gliders have been used that serve as data shuttles to communicate with the underwater mooring gear, as well as collect additional data near or between the moorings. These glider operations are done by PI U. Send, and are

Spray glider observations in support of NASCarSpray gliders surveyed from the northern edge of the Mascarene Plateau, crossing the equator repeatedly, then surveyed southward back toward the Seychelles prior to recovery. One glider mission was conducted in each of 2017 and 2018. Missions were timed to capture the onset of the southwest (northern hemisphere summer) monsoon at the equator.
