New water column profilers were developed to assist in global ocean environmental observations. The first design was for a shallow water, expendible, environmental profiler (SWEEP) for rapid environment assessment. The sweep system is intended for autonomous vertical profiling of acoustic, optical, and physical properties of the water column and seafloor in depths down to 100 meters. The second design is a shallow water environmental profiler, in trawl safe, real time configuration (SEPTR). SEPTR is a two-part bottom-up profiler with added ADCP, tide/wave gage, and extended duration battery packages in a recoverable trawler safe housing.
