| | Abstract |
| | A REMUS (Remote Environmental Measuring UnitS) unmanned undersea vehicle (UUV) is being |
| | used for chemical plume mapping as part of the Office of Naval Research (ONR) Chemical |
| | Sensing in the Marine Environment (CSME) program. Bathymetric, current, temperature and |
| | fluorometric data are collected while the vehicle performs a ladder type search across and |
| | downstream of a dye source. These data are used to validate and refine an analytical plume model. |
| | Operational experiences and data collected will be presented from operations at San Clemente |
| | Island, California and Duck, North Carolina. |
