Uncrewed surface vehicles (USVs) as platforms for fisheries and plankton acoustics
Uncrewed surface vehicles (USVs) equipped with echosounders have the potential to replace or enhance acoustic observations from conventional research vessels (RVs), increase spatial and temporal coverage, and reduce cost and carbon emission. We discuss the objectives, system requirements, infrastructure, and regulations for using USVs with echosounders to conduct ecological experiments, acoustic-trawl surveys, and long-term monitoring. We present four example applications of USVs with lengths <8 m, and highlight some advantages and disadvantages relative to RV-based data acquisitions. Sail-driven USVs operate continuously for months and are more mature than motorized USVs, but they are slower. To maintain the pace of an RV, multiple sail-powered USVs sample in coordination. In comparison, motorized USVs can travel as fast as RVs and therefore may facilitate a combined survey, interleaving USV and RV transects, with RV-based biological sampling. Important considerations for all USVs include platform design, noise and transducer motion mitigation, communications and operations infrastructure, onboard data processing, biological sampling approach, and legal requirements. This technology is evolving and applied in multiple disciplines, but further development and institutional commitment are needed to allow USVs equipped with echosounders to become ubiquitous and useful components of a worldwide network of autonomous ocean observation platforms.
期刊介绍:
The ICES Journal of Marine Science publishes original articles, opinion essays (“Food for Thought”), visions for the future (“Quo Vadimus”), and critical reviews that contribute to our scientific understanding of marine systems and the impact of human activities on them. The Journal also serves as a foundation for scientific advice across the broad spectrum of management and conservation issues related to the marine environment. Oceanography (e.g. productivity-determining processes), marine habitats, living resources, and related topics constitute the key elements of papers considered for publication. This includes economic, social, and public administration studies to the extent that they are directly related to management of the seas and are of general interest to marine scientists. Integrated studies that bridge gaps between traditional disciplines are particularly welcome.
