Gliding forwards

Dr Jon Downes was one of 150 delegates from across Europe that visited the NOC in Southampton for the 7th EGO conference  on autonomous ocean gliders and their applications. The conference, hosted by the NOC, provided a forum in which scientists, engineers, students and industry exchanged knowledge and experiences on the development of glider technology, the application of gliders in oceanographic research and the role of gliders in ocean observing systems. Presentations included work from the EU H2020 Bridges Project developing the next generation gliders (http://www.bridges-h2020.eu/) that the University is contributing to.
