WHOI scientists, technicians and partners are continuing to advance the development of AUVs for different environments.  Deeper versions of the Seabed, called Jaguar and Puma, will be used to look for hydrothermal vent sites under the ice in the Arctic Ocean. Sea trials of these vehicles will be conducted in the fall of 2006. Illustration courtesy of Paul Oberlander, copyright WHOI.
