Journal ArticleDOI
The first demonstration of a microbial fuel cell as a viable power supply: Powering a meteorological buoy
Leonard M. Tender,Sam A. Gray,Ethan Groveman,Daniel A. Lowy,Peter Kauffman,Julio Melhado,Robert Tyce,Darren Flynn,Rose Petrecca,Joe Dobarro +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the first demonstration of a microbial fuel cell (MFC) as a practical alternative to batteries for a low-power consuming application, which is a meteorological buoy that measures air temperature, pressure, relative humidity and water temperature.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Designing a Vertical / Horizontal AUV for Deep Ocean Sampling
Jonathan Byron,Robert Tyce +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the design work and testing involved in developing a stable vertical AUV that will later be equipped to convert itself to a stable horizontal AUV for deep sea profiling and sampling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interpretation of Sea Beam backscatter data collected at the Laurentian fan off Nova Scotia using acoustic backscatter theory
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used acoustic scattering theory and sea-beam measurements to estimate seafloor roughness parameters using the Helmholtz-Kirchhoff formulation of scattering theory.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Shallow water expendable and trawler safe environmental profilers
TL;DR: A prototype Shallow Water Expendable Environmental Profiler (SWEEP) for rapid environment assessment has been developed and tested by SACLANT Undersea Research Centre in collaboration with the University of Rhode Island Department of Ocean Engineering as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relation of Sea Beam echo peak statistics to the character of bottom topography
Kushal K. Talukdar,Robert Tyce +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the spectral character of the sea-floor roughness from an acoustic backscatter model suggests that the ridge area is dominated by large-scale roughness and the abyssal plain by small scale.
