Observing the marine environment Environmental Observations Develop solutions for reliable operation in extreme environments, including - Buoys, Autonomous measurement platforms and sensors - Low power consumption Long term operation Marine Resources In collaboration with Institute of Marine Reserach (Norway), develop advanced scientific software and analysis tools for mapping pelagic and demersal resources Aquaculture and Fisheries Develop: - Sensors for fish welfare, water quality and biomass - Decision support for fishing vessels and marine spatial planning 3
Fish stock detection Advanced software and analysis tools - Mapping the pelagic and demersal resources LSSS SEAT - For marine stock assessment / research - Real-time system for fishing vessels - Post-processing of acoustic data - Decision support during search/capture - Designed for experts in underwater acoustics
Real-time data of ice drift and weather • Yearly deployment of the ICEX buoy since 1995 • Part of an international programme (IABP) for collection of real-time data of weather observations and movement of ice in the Arctic • Air pressure, temperature and position • Air deployable
From drifting buoys to planned cruises: ‘SailBuoy’ • 2m long, 15kg payload • Precise temporal & spatial sampling rate • Dynamic cruise planning • On-line, < 1 minute round trip communication • Tested in North Sea and the Barents Sea, Mexico Gulf • Commercially available www.sailbuoy.no
The Sailbuoy The Sailbuoy – Autonomous surface vehicle / platform - Developed by CMR. Commercial available through Offshore Sensing AS - A wind driven platform (use wind for propulsion, behaves much like a sailboat) - Power for electronics and actuators (battery and solar panels) - Data communication and control (real time using Iridium satellite) Target – offer new services: - Measurement and data collection - Subsea communication - Surveillance and warning Target – reduced costs - Reduce needs for vessels with high rates

‘SailBuoy’: Use of autonomous measurements • 81°N, north of arctic archipelago of Spitzbergen (2013) • Waveheight measurements (SailBuoy) close to ice edge • NERSC (ice waves vs. ocean waves) • Improvement of forecast models (MET) • Gulf of Mexico: Surface temperature, salinity and oxygen (SailBuoy) • Example w/Deep-C • Data input to models predicting surface conditions (outlet of Missisippi) • Model parameters corrected!

Summer Ice Edge Cruise 2016 • In the summer of 2016, two Sailbuoys will be deployed in the area around the ice edge • In a collaboration project between Offshore Sensing, Aanderaa, CMR and Nansen Environmental and Remote Sensing Center (NERSC), the vessels will be utilized to look at the processes around the ice – ocean interface • One Sailbuoy will be mounted with O2, pH, pCO2, Conductivity and temperature sensors Sailbuoy routes will be planned • The other Sailbuoy will utilize a mounted ecco sounder to Using satellite data from the area collect back scatter data close to the ice-edge • Satellite data will be utilized for navigation purposes to ensure the vessels are guided to the most scientific interesting areas • Scientific analysis will be done by NERSC Sailbuoy with ecco sounder and sailbuoy with Aanderaa Water Quality Sensors 11 Courtesy: Aanderaa
Sailbuoy with Aanderaa Sensor Pack • Sailbuoy offers a unique method to gather data in remote locations • In the Iskantseilas (Ice Edge) project, we wanted to utilize this platform to test out Aanderaa’s new range of sensors: optical pH and optical pCO2 • The Sailbuoy with the Aanderaa sensor pack utilizes a bulb mounted design • The sensor pack can include: O2, pH, pCO2, Conductivity, Temperature and turbidity from Aanderaa • Fouling is avoided using a UV light Sailbuoy with Aanderaa sensors and UV light in kiel • A wide range of sensors from other vendors can be fitted by mounting them in the vessel hull Courtesy: Aanderaa/Offshore Sensing
