Summary:
Four Gen6 Saildrone Explorer USVs were launched from Dutch Harbor in August 2021. These USVs were equipped with DT800 single beam sonars. Two of the USVs were equipped with Gen1 ASVCO2 sensors and two were equipped with Gen2 ASVCO2 sensors. The objectives of this mission include mapping contours within the Arctic for uncharted or minimally charted parts of the sea, and performing intercomparisons between the Gen1 and Gen2 ASVCO2 systems in the Arctic environment.

Saildrone ECMWF Atlantic Gulf Stream 2021-2022, drone 1034

Summary:
Three Gen6 Saildrone Explorer USVs were launched from Newport, Rhode Island in December 2021. The five objectives of this mission  include collecting atmospheric and oceanographic data from the Gulf Stream during winter months for inclusion in European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF)'s weather forecasting pipeline, and to collect dissolved CO2 measurements from Gen2 ASVCO2 systems to understand carbon flux in the area. If pCO2 is calculated, the TEMP_DEPTH_HALFMETER sensor should be used as the primary sea surface temperature when calculating pCO2. Due to damage in a storm, SD-1034 was an additional USV launched in the beginning of May 2022 from North Carolina.

Summary:
Five Gen6 Saildrone Explorer USVs were launched in the Atlantic Ocean for the duration of the 2021 Atlantic Hurricane Season. These USVs were equipped with a 'hurricane wing' designed specifically to withstand hurricane-strength winds and waves. The five objectives of this mission  include (1) advancing the CONOPS of steering and operating USVs towards strong low-pressure systems, (2) coordinating with underwater gliders, (3) developing CONOPS for coordinating with UAVs, (4) developing CONOPS for using multiple USVs to observe the air-sea interface ahead, inside and behind hurricanes, and (5) provision of real-time data for ingestion to Global Telecommunications System (GTS) and reception by operational data assimilation and forecast systems.

The International Comprehensive Ocean-Atmosphere Data Set (ICOADS) offers surface marine data spanning the past three centuries, and simple gridded monthly summary products for 2-degree latitude x 2-degree longitude boxes back to 1800 (and 1degreex1degree boxes since 1960)--these data and products are freely distributed worldwide. As it contains observations from many different observing systems encompassing the evolution of measurement technology over hundreds of years, ICOADS is probably the most complete and heterogeneous collection of surface marine data in existence.

WMO data distribution test, drone 1031

Summary:
Five Gen6 Saildrone Explorer USVs were launched in the Atlantic Ocean for the duration of the 2021 Atlantic Hurricane Season. These USVs were equipped with a 'hurricane wing' designed specifically to withstand hurricane-strength winds and waves. The five objectives of this mission  include (1) advancing the CONOPS of steering and operating USVs towards strong low-pressure systems, (2) coordinating with underwater gliders, (3) developing CONOPS for coordinating with UAVs, (4) developing CONOPS for using multiple USVs to observe the air-sea interface ahead, inside and behind hurricanes, and (5) provision of real-time data for ingestion to Global Telecommunications System (GTS) and reception by operational data assimilation and forecast systems.

These buoys are major components of the CLIVAR climate analysis project and the GOOS, GCOS, and GEOSS observing systems.  Daily averages are computed starting at 00:00Z and are assigned an observation 'time' of 12:00Z.  For more information, see
