RUCOOL Revised Satellite Webpage Launched

On February 19, 2004 RUCOOL revamped its satellite webpage after 10 years of operation. The revised website allows users to view with thumbnails or without, and allows users to search archived data files. In future years, RUCOOL hopes to expand the number of data products to their users.


Autonomous Underwater Gliders Long Duration Test

Starting January of 2004, the RUCOOL glider group has executed a long duration test to push the capability of the autonomous underwater vehicle, better known as Glider. Continuously throughout the year, the glider group will have a glider deployed off the coast of NJ. Once one glider is run out of power, it will be recovered and replaced by another glider. At the end of the year, RUCOOL is excited to see what year long data set they were able to collect.
