Saildrone in the Dark

Detailed Description

The Saildrone is a wind and solar powered platform that carries a scientific-grade echosounder for sampling pelagic fish. During the summer of 2022 we conducted experiments with Saildrone to compare fish density estimates it measured to several Lake Superior agency vessels including the R/V Kiyi.
