Autonomous underwater gliders monitoring variability at choke points in our ocean system: A case study in the Western Mediterranean Sea

Recent data from an autonomous ocean glider in the Ibiza Channel (Western Mediterranean Sea) show variations in the transport volumes of water over timescales of days-weeks, as large as those previously only identifiable as seasonal or eddy driven. High frequency variation in transports of water mas...
