“…In spite of high significance of the knowledge on ocean physics and biology, we little know about life at the bottom of the ocean, formation of the giant surface waves and high-energy internal ocean waves, genesis and early detection of the earthquakes, tornados, recognition of schools of fish and plankton, oil spills, liquid and solid pollutions [1]. During the last decades, a visible breakthrough in this area has been connected to novel glider technologies for autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) and new concepts of their design, hydromechanics, tasks, behaviour, interaction, communication, and control [2,3]. The UAVs have already shown their utility for monitoring the coastal, meso-and submesoscale dynamics, data sampling for ocean modelling, acoustic detection of biological and geological activity, transport of water, food and energy [2].…”
