Executive Summary
The coastal ocean is a highly variable system with processes that have significant
implications on the hydrographic and oxygen characteristics of the water column. The
spatial and temporal variability of these fields can cause dramatic changes to water
quality and in turn the health of the ecosystem. While low Dissolved Oxygen (DO)
concentrations are not uncommon in the coastal ocean, what is less understood is how the
location and size of these low DO regions vary and what impact that variability has on
ecosystem health. Therefore alternative sampling strategies are needed to continuously
map these low DO areas in a way that quantifies this variability. This project applies a
series of Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) deployments from Sandy Hook to
Cape May, NJ to address this need by mapping the subsurface DO concentration in near
real-time within the near coastal ocean.
The long endurance capability combined with the required sawtooth pattern
propulsion make the glider an ideal platform for continuously mapping sub-surface ocean
conditions at high resolution and in near real-time. In this project we completed 6 glider
missions along the New Jersey coast in 2011 and 2012. Each glider was specifically setup
to complete these nearshore missions that focus the monitoring specific to the needs defined
by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the New Jersey Department of
Environmental Protection (NJDEP). All the glider missions were completed in
accordance to the operating procedures described in the Quality Assurance Project Plan
(QAPP). The QAPP was approved by the project participants at EPA, Rutgers, and
NJDEP. The document clearly states the pre- and post-deployment steps needed to
ensure the quality of the data collected during each mission. By following these
specifications we documented the required quality assurance steps for the AAnderra Optode,
SeaBird CTD (pumped and unpumped) and the glider platform itself. The missions were
carried out with a predefined path that was adjusted through consensus of the project
partners (Rutgers, EPA, and NJDEP) to capture the variability in the magnitude and
structure of dissolved oxygen patterns in the coastal ocean.
Consistent with previous discrete sampling, each glider mission observed DO
concentrations below 5 mg/L. These lower concentrations were limited to the bottom layer.
The unique sampling provided through the glider AUV showed that the DO concentrations
were highly variable in the vertical, horizontal, and through time. The scales of variability
of the DO concentration observed over these two seasons were on the order of 60-80 km in
space and 3-4 days in time. The strongest gradients were observed across the thermocline
with surface waters usually much more oxygenated than the bottom waters. These vertical
gradients were weaker closer to the coast and broke down following strong wind events.
Since sampling was all done in real-time, the monitoring data was immediately available to
NJDEP and EPA to inform their response to these events. Based on these missions, we have
begun to sample the dynamic coastal ocean environment at the scales of known variability.
The results show that while there are persistent patterns in the dissolved oxygen fields off
our coasts, rapid changes can occur with varied effects across the region.

The coastal monitoring described here is built on significant leveraging and
partnership. With the support of EPA we filled a critical observing gap along the inner
shelf of the New Jersey coast. The presence of MARACOOS, the Mid-Atlantic Regional
component of IOOS provided critical facilities and technical expertise to accelerate the
adaption of the shelf-wide glider missions to near-shore missions with a specific focus on
water quality monitoring. EPA Region II and NJDEP identified the need and provided the
necessary resources to support these coastal missions. We would like to specifically
acknowledge Michael Borst (EPA), Darvene Adams (EPA), Bruce Friedman (NJDEP), and
Robert Schuster (NJDEP) for all their help with planning and logistics. The captain and
crew of the R/V Clean Waters provided the deployment support and the EPA and NJDEP
crews helped with the recoveries. Throughout the project there is consistent communication
to both adapt the glider mission given the near-real time data and coordinate a response if
needed.

1. Introduction
1.1. Motivation
The coastal ocean is a highly variable system with processes that have significant
implications on the hydrographic and oxygen characteristics of the water column. The
spatial and temporal variability of these fields can cause dramatic changes to water
quality and in turn the health of the ecosystem. Both the U. S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) and the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP)
have prioritized monitoring the coastal waters off New Jersey in their long-term strategic
plans as an essential component of the decision-making process. Of particular interest
are the spatial and temporal characteristics of dissolved oxygen (DO). In response to this
need to better understand the dynamics, we put together a program to augment existing
monitoring with targeted deployments of glider Autonomous Underwater Vehicles
(AUVs) equipped with sensors to map coastal dissolved oxygen and hydrographic
conditions in near-real time along the New Jersey inner-shelf
Hypoxic and anoxic conditions ripple through the entire ecosystem causing fish
kills and potentially large disruptions to local and remote food webs. Both NJDEP and
EPA have defined standards and criteria to classify the coastal ocean based on measured
DO concentrations. Healthy ecosystems are typically defined as having DO
concentrations above 5 mg/L. Conditions become hypoxic when DO concentrations
decrease below the 5.0 mg/L limit. DO concentrations less than 2.3 mg/L fall below the
limit of juvenile and adult shellfish and fmfish survival and increase the risks for lethal
impacts to the coastal ocean (U.S. EPA, 2000).
Figure 1: Temperature (upper right) and dissolved oxygen concentration (lower right) collected during a
coastal run along the New Jersey coast from October 8, 2010 through October 25, 2010
Monitoring for DO in the coastal ocean has typically been done through lab
analyses of discrete water samples collected from boats or helicopters. Between 1979
and 2005 this sampling identified DO concentrations below 5.0 mg/L every year off the
-------
coast of New Jersey. While these low values are not uncommon, what is less understood
is how the location and size of these low DO regions vary along the New Jersey coast and
the impact that variability has on ecosystem health. Therefore, alternative sampling
strategies are needed to map the low DO areas in a way that quantifies this variability.
This project applies a series of AUV transits from Sandy Hook to Cape May, NJ to map
the subsurface DO concentration in near real-time within the near coastal ocean (Figure
1). The primary users for the data generated by this project are the EPA and the water
monitoring division of the NJDEP. During each mission the real-time data was used to
map dissolved oxygen and water column stratification along the New Jersey coast. The 6
missions together allow us to begin to quantify range, structure, and evolution of DO off
the New Jersey coast.
1.2 Objectives
The objectives for this project were to:
• Evaluate the use of AUVs as a tool to monitor DO concentrations across a broad
spatial area at high spatial and temporal resolution for the purpose of problem
identification, diagnosis, and evaluation.
• Provide spatially and temporally comprehensive water quality data to be used to
assess the coastal ocean as required under section 106 of the Clean Water Act.
• Produce Standard Operating Procedures, Quality Assurance procedures,
validation data, and a data analysis/data management system for future AUV
monitoring.
1.3 Shallow Glider AUV
The Rutgers University Institute of Marine and Coastal Sciences (RU/IMCS) in
collaboration with the Mid-Atlantic Regional Association Coastal Ocean Observing
System (MARACOOS), the Mid-Atlantic regional component of the Integrated Ocean
Observing System (IOOS), the NJDEP Division of Water Monitoring and Standards, and
the EPA (Region II and the Office of Research and Development) have demonstrated the
use of the Slocum glider to observe temperature, salinity, and dissolved oxygen
concentrations off the coast of New Jersey. In the summer of 2009, the first glider
mission to complete the coast wide sampling of hydrography and DO served as a pilot for
the missions described in this report. The glider was deployed on August 20, 2009 for 20
days covering 316 kilometers and generating 5,100 water-column profiles from the
surface to near the ocean floor. This deployment provided a horizontal, vertical, and
temporal resolution of DO in coastal ocean water conditions previously unavailable. The
mission tracked the evolving fields of dissolved oxygen and hydrography through
upwelling and coastal storm events (Ragsdale et al., 2011). This project extends these
types of missions for two summers in 2011 and 2012.
The glider AUV is 1.2 m long and weighs 52 kilograms in air (Figure 2). The
vehicle is designed for long duration missions (exceeding 2 weeks) with frequent
connections to shore for data download and mission modifications. For our coastal
missions the gliders are programmed to surface every 3 hours. At each surfacing the glider

determines its position via Global Positioning System (GPS) and then connects to the
Coastal Ocean Observation Lab (COOL) at Rutgers via satellite. Between connections the
glider is submerged and cutoff from the pilots back on shore. It is during these segments
that the glider samples the sub-surface ocean (Figure 1). The AUV moves through the water
by cycling a buoyancy pump to take in and extract 500 ml of seawater. Near the surface the
glider pulls the seawater into the nose, reducing the internal volume of the glider, lowering
its displacement. The lower displacement causes the glider to sink and it begins to dive.
Using moveable battery packs as ballast, the glider maintains a dive angle of 26 degrees
throughout the decent. This angle is optimal to translate the vertical sinking into forward
motion. When the glider reaches the end of its dive, approximately 2 m above the seafloor,
the piston extends forcing the water back into the ocean through the nose. This increases
the glider's displacement, restores positive buoyancy and allows it to rise toward the surface
(Figure 2). Over these coastal missions we deployed gliders with two types of buoyancy
pumps. Each worked as described above, but had different cycling speeds. Glider ru07 and
ru!6 both had a 100 meter pump that cycled from full in to full out in approximately 10-12
seconds. A second pump installed in ru28 was specifically designed for the shallower
water of the inner shelf. This pump's cycle time was faster going from full in to full out in
5-6 seconds. The fast response time allows the glider to inflect faster and therefore get
closer to the seafloor. Between surfacings, the glider navigates in this sawtooth pattern
using an on board attitude sensor (pitch, roll, and heading) to dead reckon its position along
the path. Steering adjustments are made with a fin to ensure the glider remains on its
intended heading. Once back at the surface it uses the current GPS position and that of the
last surfacing to linearly interpolate its position over the time it was submerged.
The buoyancy-driven propulsion of these vehicles affords high energy efficiency
allowing deployment endurance approaching 30 days with alkaline batteries needing to
provide less than 1,400 amp hours (Schofield et al., 2007). This is the equivalent of
running a 100 watt lightbulb for 21 hours. The buoyancy driven propulsion also puts a
high demand on mission preparation to ensure it operates continuously throughout the
deployment through a wide range of water density. Prior to each mission the glider is
carefully ballasted so that its neutral weight matches the expected mean water density of the
study site. Since the glider depends on displacement adjustments for propulsion, it is
critical that this ballasting step be done precisely. The long endurance capability combined
with the required sawtooth pattern propulsion make the glider an ideal platform for
continuously mapping sub-surface ocean conditions at high vertical and horizontal
resolution and in near real-time.
1.4 Specific Glider Setup
Each glider was specifically setup to complete these nearshore missions that focus
the monitoring specific to the monitoring needs. For each coastal run, the glider was
deployed near Sandy Hook, NJ. The AUV completed a zigzag track along the coast
toward Cape May, NJ (Figure 3). Prior to each mission, Rutgers, NJDEP and EPA
approved the path. This path, defined by a series of waypoints, lead the glider from
Sandy Hook to Cape May sampling the vertical and horizontal structure of DO between 1
and 25 miles from the coast while avoiding known hazards, including fish havens and
shipping lanes. This path was subject to change based on environmental conditions. For

example during the summer of 2011 the glider deployed in the first mission was
redirected to focus on a large phytoplankton bloom off the central New Jersey coast.
Later in August that same glider was directed offshore to deeper waters to preserve glider
safety during the rough wave and current conditions during Hurricane Irene. Any
modification was agreed to by the project partners to concentrate the sampling, ensure the
glider was not put into unnecessary risk, or both.
Each glider was equipped with two main sensors, a Sea-Bird Conductivity
Temperature Depth (CTD) (Model GPCTD) and an Aanderraa Optode (Model
3835/5014W). The CTD samples conductivity, temperature and pressure at 0.5 Hz
throughout the mission. The measured water pressure is used to calculate depth. These data
with the interpolated position from the GPS readings allow mapping of the ocean
temperature, salinity and density along the track. The optode measures phase shifts across a
calibrated foil at IHz that when combined with measured temperature gives the calculated
DO concentration and percent saturation. In addition three of the missions were flown
with an additional sensor that measured optical backscatter, Colored Dissolved Organic
Matter (CDOM) fluorescence, and Chlorophyll-a fluorescence. While not a focus of this
report, the Chlorophyll-a fluorescence highlighted location of the peak phytoplankton
concentrations relative to the observed gradients in DO and hydrography.
For each mission the glider was deployed from the EPA Research Vessel Clean
Waters out of Jersey City, NJ. The deployment location was fixed about 8 miles south of
the tip of Sandy Hook 3 miles offshore. To deploy the glider it was simply lowered off the
stern of the Clean Waters before a series of in water test were completed to verify the glider
was working properly. Following the mission we coordinated to EPA and NJDEP to
identify a boat and port closest to the glider position for recovery. On either a NJDEP or
EPA small vessel (less than 30 ft) we would transit out to the glider's location. Once the
glider was visually located from the boat, the glider was gently pulled from the water over
the side of the vessel (Figure 2). The details of the procedures for both deployment and
recovery are outlined in the Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP) included in this report
as Annex A.
2. Data Analysis
2.1 Quality Assurance
All the glider missions were completed in accordance to the operating procedures
described in the QAPP (Annex A). The QAPP was approved by the project participants
at EPA, Rutgers, and NJDEP. The document clearly states the pre- and post-deployment
steps needed to ensure the quality of the data collected during each mission. In addition,
decision making criteria are defined to take advantage of the adaptive capabilities of the
glider sampling and reduce the risk on the glider given changing ocean and atmospheric
conditions. The QAPP with details of the operating procedures will be particularly
useful as the government agencies move forward with incorporating AUV data into
environmental decision-making. This QAPP has already informed the development of
an IOOS document on Quality Assurance and Control Standards for Real-Time
Dissolved Oxygen Measurements.
Over the course of the project, 5 amendments were added to the initial QAPP to
add flexibility to the hardware options while maintaining the quality data standards.
Amendments 1 and 2 allowed us to substitute CTD sensors provided they pass the
-------
comparability tests outlined in the QAPP. Amendment 3 was a simple replacement of a
discontinued titration test kit with its updated replacement as recommend by the vendor.
Amendment 4 allowed us to substitute additional gliders from the Rutgers fleet in the
event of damage or loss so that we could meet the continuous sampling requirements
through the summer months. The final amendment updated some of the mission
documents. As the Rutgers glider program continues to evolve and expand, best
practices are often refined. The specifics of all these amendments are detailed in the
QAPP attached to this report as Appendix A.
As stated previously, the main purpose of these missions was to deliver quality
DO data to both the EPA and NJDEP. Given that, we designed and carried out a
procedure that provides specific requirements for the glider itself and the sensors it
carried on board. Prior to each deployment, the glider went through an extensive check-
out procedure to ensure that all systems (communications, navigation, science payloads,
etc.) were working as required. The results of each check-out and check in following the
deployment were documented and delivered to EPA. These mission documents are
attached to this report as appendices B thru G for each of the 6 missions completed. In
the following sections we detail the sensor specific quality control procedures.
The data analysis carried out for each of these missions was approved by the
project participants in the QAPP. The pre-, post- and in mission planning were all carried
out to ensure quality data output. The primary objective of the work was to ensure the
delivery of quality DO data throughout the water column along the glider's path. In this
section we describe the processing and quality assurance approach we took to ensure that
this objective was met.
2. /../ Dissolved Oxygen:
The dissolved oxygen data was sampled with an optical unit manufactured by
Aanderra Instruments called the optode. Based on manufacturer specifications each
optode deployed was sent to the factory for an annual calibration. In addition to these
annual calibrations, we also completed pre- and post- deployment verifications. To do

saturations all measured between 0.02% and 0.012% saturation over all deployments.
Similarly for the 100% tests, all optodes met the requirements specified in the QAPP with
all optode measurements within 5% of the Winkler titration results (Table 1). The only
test that could not be completed was the post deployment verification following mission
-------
1. This was the only mission where the glider could not be recovered due to loss. A
copy of the details of each of these verification tests is included in the documentation for
each mission in Appendix B through G.

"Castaway CTD, not SBE19
2.1.2 Hydrography
The hydrographic data collected on each mission was done with either a pumped
or unpumped CTD specifically engineered for these gliders. Like the optode, we
deployed glider CTDs that were calibrated by the factory at least once per year. With the
loss of ru!6 at the end of the first mission, there was an amendment drafted that would
allow a CTD not factory calibrated within the last year provided it passed the remaining
tests. The verification procedures required a two-tier approach to verifying the
temperature and conductivity data from the glider CTD. The first tier test was a pre- and

-------
post- deployment verification between the glider CTD and a factory calibrated sea bird-
19 CTD in our ballast tank in New Brunswick, NJ. The result of each verification for
each deployment is shown in Table 2. For most missions, the glider CTD passed this
test with all temperature and conductivity measurements within 0.05 C and 0.005 S/M,
respectively. The only exception was the single test (pre-deployment #3) in which a
castaway CTD replaced the standard SEE-19 unit. This castaway was not designed for a
static tank test and therefore the results should be taken with caution. Even with this
known issue, the comparability for both temperature and conductivity were within 0.08 C
and 0.019 S/m, respectively. It could not be determined if this failure was a quality issue
until the post deployment tank test conducted after recovery that verified the glider CTD
measurements were within range of the SEE-19 (Table 2). The second tier test was an in
situ verification at the deployment and recovery of the glider. For each deployment and
recovery we lowered a separate CTD meeting manufacturer calibration requirements to
compare to a concurrent glider profile. This second tier test gave an in situ comparison
within the hydrographic conditions of the mission (Figure 4). For all the deployment
tests, the structure and magnitude of the temperature and conductivity measured by the
glider CTD was verified against the independent measurement (within 0.05 C for
temperature and 0.005 S/m for conductivity). The same was not always possible with the
recovery cast comparisons. Because of the logistics during a recovery it was not always
possible to match the time and location of the CTD and glider casts. The greater the
mismatch, the more influence the different environmental conditions at each cast bias the
comparison. For example the CTD cast shown in (Figure 4, bottom) was taken 730 m
away from and 50 minutes after the glider profile. Given this, the discrepancy between
these casts is less a measure of instrument quality and more a measure of the
environmental variability. Therefore we relied more on the in tank post deployment
comparison tests to verify the quality of the glider CTD sensor (Table 2).
2.2 Data Post Processing
During each mission, data was stored locally on the glider and a subset of data
was sent back to Rutgers via the satellite link. The transmitted subset consisted of every
third data point within alternating profiles. The resulting resolution of this subset was
approximately 0.9 m in the vertical and 110 m in the horizontal. After recovery of the
glider, all data were run through sensor specific QA/QC verifications. The sensor
specific post processing are described in the following two sub-sections.
2.2.1 Dissolved Oxygen
Raw oxygen profiles were corrected using the following criteria:
1. Aanderaa Oxygen Optodes typically exhibit a measurement time lag of -22
seconds (Aanderra Users Manual). During the deployment, we used this stated
value as the shift value. Upon recovery and download of the full resolution
dataset, the following extra steps were taken.
2. Consecutive dissolved oxygen profiles were examined to determine the sensor-
specific time lags by time-shifting the up and down profiles until best alignment
of the vertical features determined by (insert criterion) was achieved. Each sensor
-------
show a time-lag close to the reported time lag (Aanderra Users Manual) with
some slight variation (20 - 25 seconds).
3. A mean time-lag value was selected using the entire dataset from each
deployment and all profiles were then time-shifted by the observed best-result
shift.
2.2.2 Hydrography
CTD: Gliders deployed during this project were configured with pumped and
unpumped CTD sensors. Regardless of whether the CTD was pumped, all CTD profiles
were processed in the same manner. Pumped units typically display smaller errors in raw
sampling, a significant advantage in highly stratified water columns, which are typical in
this area in the Spring, Summer and Fall seasons. The following methods were used to
analyze and correct raw CTD profiles:
1. Raw temperature outliers were removed by comparing against climatology in this
region. A temperature measurement was removed if it was < 8 degrees Celsius or
> 28 degrees Celsius.
2. Individual profiles of temperature and conductivity are checked for spikes using
the methods present in the Argo Data Quality Control Manual v2.8 (Argo Quality
Control Manual). Spike values, defined as (insert e.g., changes of more than
lOOoC) are removed from further processing.
3. Temperature and conductivity profiles are corrected for thermal lag of the
conductivity cell as described in Garau, et.al. (2011). The correction method
aligns the raw temperature and conductivity signals, taking into account the
variable speed of the glider. Four correction parameters are then calculated that
minimize the area between the temperature-salinity curves of 2 consecutive
vertical profiles. These parameters are then used to estimate the temperature
inside the conductivity cell. This estimate of temperature inside the cell is
combined with the measured temperature to calculate salinity for each
profile. This method is shown to correct artificial salinity spikes with values of
upto 0.3 PSU.
4. Consecutive down and up profiles are examined and used to calculate a mean
profile representing the actual water column temperature, conductivity and
salinity profiles. The following assumptions are made:
a. Raw downcast profiles typically exhibit an erroneous spike in the salinity
profile present as abnormally high salinity values in the region of the
thermocline. Density profiles calculated using these erroneous values
result in a thermodynamically unstable water column (higher density
water on top of lower density water).
b. Raw upcast profiles typically exhibit an erroneous spike in the salinity
profile present as abnormally low salinity values in the region of the
thermocline. Density profiles calculated using these erroneous values
10
-------
result In a thermodynamically unstable water column (higher density
water on top of lower density water).
c. Measured temperature and conductivity values for the true water column
profile lie somewhere In between the mean of consecutive
downcasts/upcasts.
d. As a rule of thumb, gliders typically travel twice the horizontal distance as
they travel vertically. For this project, we agreed to provide at least one
profile at 110 meter horizontal resolution. Given that the water column
depth range was 0-30 meters, a consecutive profile pair covered 100 -
120 meters. This methodology allows us to meet the spatial resolution
requirements.
5. Calculated mean profiles were then inspected for salinity spikes and any profile
containing a spike > 0.3 PSU was eliminated from the post-processed dataset
(Garau et.al. 2011). Across all project deployments, less than 1% of the corrected
profiles were discarded.
3.
The six deployments sampled the variability in both the hydrography and
dissolved oxygen over two summers off the coast of New Jersey. To do this we used
three gliders, RU16 (Mission 1), RU07 (Missions 2, 3, & 6), and RU28 (Missions 4 & 5).
Details of each mission including dates, duration, and observations are summarized in
Table 3. The two deployments in 2011 were completed in August and October before,
during, and after a large phytoplankton bloom, Hurricane Irene (August 28, 2011), and
the remnants of Tropical Storm Lee (September 4, 2011). The four deployments In 2012
covered each month between June and September, inclusive, mapping the seasonal
evolution from late spring through early fall. Within each of these missions we observed
significant variability in the measured dissolved oxygen. All six missions measured DO
concentrations below 5 mg/L with 4 missions observing DO concentrations below 2
mg/L.

persistent vertical structure with lower DO concentrations below the seasonal thermocline

The objective of this project was to capture that spatial and temporal variability at a
resolution not obtainable from discrete sampling. Spatially, the lowest values were seen
off the Northern New Jersey coast in both the August and October missions in 2011. In
12
-------
2012 the lowest DO were again within the bottom layer below the thermocline. In all
missions, the DO was seen to vary significantly in the vertical profile and along the path
in both space and time. Temporal changes were predominately caused by strong
(Hurricane Irene) and moderate wind events that mixed the more oxygenated surface
water with the deeper less oxygenated water. Spatial variability was strongly depth
dependent with most of the lower concentrations within the bottom layer in waters
shallower than 20 m. There were exceptions to these generalities in each deployment.
While this project focused on the observed variability of the DO fields, it is
important to place these observations in the context of the simultaneously sampled
seawater temperature and salinity. The remaining subsections present the results for the
thermal, saline and DO variability observed through these 6 missions. We characterize
the range as well as structure of these fields as they evolve within and between the
summer seasons of 2011 and 2012.
3.1 Temperature
Mean surface temperatures observed across all missions were in the mid 20s °C,
except in the Fall of 2011 and spring of 2012 where the temperatures were in the upper
teens. For all missions the mean bottom temperatures were between 14 and 19 degree C.
The summer deployments show a two layer structure previously observed off the New
Jersey coast with a warmer fresher layer separated from a colder saltier layer by a very
strong thermocline approximately midway through the water column (Figure 5). During
the October deployment in 2011, the water column had already transit!oned from summer
stratified conditions to late fall/winter mixed conditions (Figure 5, upper right). During
the first deployment of 2012 (June), the stratification was just beginning to strengthen
(Figure 5, middle left). The two 2011 deployments show the late season transition from
the strong stratified summer to the mixed fall. The strong rapid mixing due to Hurricane
Irene initiated the breakdown of the thermocline at the end of August with a dramatic
cooling of the surface layer of over 7 degree C (Figure 5, upper left). The temperature
continues to decline throughout the water column over the course of the following
October mission. The 2012 missions illustrate the seasonal transition with the onset of
thermal stratification beginning in June, strengthening through July and August and
beginning to breakdown in September. This breakdown is seen in the deepening of the
thermocline and a cooling of the surface layer through the September mission. On
average the water temperatures below the thermocline are warmer in 2012 (Table 3). In
both years, the thermocline is 10 to 15m deep.
3.2 Salinity
The mean surface salinity varied from 29.7 to 31.9 practical salinity units (psu)
over all the missions. Bottom salinity was typically about 1 psu saltier (Table 3). The
structure of the salinity fields again highlights the predominance of the summer two layer
system with fresher water sitting above saltier water (Figure 6). Unlike the temperature
sections, the salinity data also shows the influence of the Hudson River with the freshest
water occurring mostly near the northern limit of the missions (left side of the panels in
Figure 6). In 2011 the most significant feature is the large slug of freshwater seen near
the surface and in some locations throughout the water column in October (Figure 6,
upper right). This is the impact of the significant rainfall that fell in August from

This is the freshest water we saw over the entire project. In 2012, the four deployments

toward the north in the late spring (June). The surface salinity gradually increases

were 3.0 mg/L less than the surface. In the remaining sub-sections we describe the
details of the observed variability in the DO fields within and between deployments and
years.
3.3.1. Spatial/Temporal Distribution
Similar to the thermal structure, the DO fields over the summer months were best
characterized as a two-layer system with higher concentrations above the thermocline and
lower concentrations below (Figure 7). The summer of 2011 was subject to a large
phytoplankton bloom that was interrupted by two significant rain events (Hurricane Irene
and the remnants of Tropical Storm Lee) while the summer of 2012 was much less
eventful. The lowest values were seen in July, August and September 2012 with some

values below 1 .0 mg/L. In August of 201 1, the lowest concentrations were seen near the
seafloor closer to the coast. This mission coincided with a large phytoplankton bloom
observed across the entire domain. Even with the large expanse of the bloom, the lowest
values, all above 3.8 mg/L, were limited to waters shallower than 20 m. Following
Hurricane Irene (August 28, 2011), the large salinity gradient, setup by Irene's rains,
16
-------
maintained the stratification into the fall. This maintained the boundary between the
lower oxygen concentration of the bottom layer and the surface. As the October mission
progressed, even this late stratification broke down and the lower layer readily mixed
with the higher concentrations of the surface layer. Over the four missions in 2012 we
see the progression from a relatively well-oxygenated water column in June with all
values above 4.5 mg/L (Figure 7, middle left) to a more bimodal distribution in the late
summer and early fall. The summertime lows in the bottom layer were 1.88 mg/L in July
and 0.94 mg/L in August (Figure 7 and 8). In general there was a tendency for the lowest
values to occur along the northern coast of NJ, within the 25-m isobath. During the last
mission in September 2012, the distribution of observations transitioned toward a more
oxygenated water column (Figure 8). For all missions, the DO concentration in the
surface layer was never below 5 mg/L and was seen as high as 12 mg/L. For the bottom
layer all DO concentrations were between 0.82 mg/L and 8.5 mg/L. From the two years
of data we can see that the late summer condition in each year both show a bimodal
distribution with higher concentrations in the surface layer and lower concentrations in
the lower layer. While the surface peak is the same between the two years, we do see
lower DO concentrations in the lower layer in 2012 (peak approximately 3 mg/L)
compared to 2011 (peak approximately 5 mg/L) in 2012 (Figure 7).
3.3.2 Decorrelation scales:
Since the glider is a non-stationary platform it is important to state that it is
simultaneously sampling temporal and spatial change. It is difficult to differentiate a
measured change in DO concentration as a change in time or a change in space when
looking at the glider data in isolation. Using autocorrelation we calculated the
decorrelation time and length scales for each deployment. The decorrelation scale is
defined as the scale, in time or space, in which the autocovariance coefficient falls below
0. These scales describe the time and space over which the DO variability becomes
uncorrelated. For example, a decorrelation length scale of 50 km indicates that the DO
observations at any point are correlated with DO observations within 50 km. Similarly, a
decorrelation time scale of 5 hours indicates that the DO observations at a particular time
are correlated with DO observations at that point for 5 hours before and after the
measurement. These scales can be used to guide the sampling required in time and space
to capture the variability of DO along the coast. For the remainder of this report, the DO
concentrations of the surface layer will be represented as those sampled between 3 m and
4 m below the surface and the DO concentration of the bottom layer will be represented
by those sampled between 3m and 4m above the seafloor. The average spatial
decorrelation scales for all the deployments are 67 km for the surface and 92 km for the
bottom (Table 4). This scale is approximately the length of a glider leg from offshore to
onshore and likely reflective of the persistent difference seen between the nearshore and
offshore dissolved oxygen vertical structure. The 2011 deployments showed similar
scales for the surface and bottom, all within 10 km of the project mean. The 2012 data
show a larger spread in the values of the length scales between surface and bottom as
well as between different deployments. For each 2012 deployment the surface scale was
smaller than the bottom scale. There is also a general trend toward longer length scales
in the bottom layer later in the season.
17
-------
The mean temporal scale across all deployments was 3.2 days for the surface and
4.6 days for the bottom layer. Similar to the space scale, the bottom layer had longer
decorrelation time scales than the surface. With an average glider speed of approximately
20-24 km/day, it would take the glider about 2.8 to 3.3 days to cover the mean spatial
decorrelation scale. While we feel that these temporal scales are more reflective of the
time it takes for the glider to move through the variation in space rather than a measured
local change over time, we do observe faster changes in time that are more episodic and
predominately due to mixing induced by local winds. Given this, the data suggest that the
sampling must resolve the spatial scales reported in Table 4 at a temporal resolution
sufficient to capture the effects of wind forced events.

calculated separately for the surface and bottom data.

3.3.3 Influence of Water Depth
For all missions the main influence driving the spatial and temporal variation in
the observed DO was water depth. As described above, the spatial decorrelation scales
were on the order of a single transect taken from the glider from either deep to shallow or
shallow to deep water. In order to confirm the influence of water depth on the observed
vertical structure of the DO we show the DO concentration for the bottom (blue) and
surface (red) data described above versus depth (Figure 9). For each mission we see
again the higher DO concentrations in the surface layer compared to the bottom layer.
With the exception of the first mission, we also see a consistent pattern in the vertical
gradient of DO with water depth. In the shallower waters the surface and bottom layer
DO concentrations are very similar usually between 6 and 8 mg/L. As the glider moves
into deeper water, the surface and bottom DO values diverge. This divergence is
primarily driven by increasingly lower concentrations in the bottom layer below stronger
stratification further offshore. The exception to this pattern is the first mission where

there is little evidence of any dependence on water depth. During this mission the
conditions remained stratified from the shallow to the deep water. The specifics of this
first mission will be discussed in the following two sections (3.4 and 3.5).
20
-------
The influence of wind events on the structure of the DO relative to the depth
dependence described above is highlighted in Figure 10. These scatter plots relate the
difference between the DO concentration in the surface and bottom layers vs. water
depth. The color of the scatter indicates the wind speed. Once again the lower
differences (less stratified) conditions are found over the shallow water depths. The
larger differences between surface and bottom are found further offshore. For each
mission we also show the distribution of wind speeds relative to each observation. The
blue values are weaker winds (below 5 m/s) and the stronger winds (>10 m/s) are shown
in yellow to red. While there are cases in which the local winds are seen to reduce the
stratification in the DO concentrations (see Irene discussion below), the water depth is
seen as a much more consistent influence on the observed vertical structure. From this
we can see that the decorrelation scales described above largely represent the variability
observed as the glider transits from shallow to deep water or deep to shallow water. The
temporal scales are representative of the time it takes the glider to complete the transit.
Over this two year period we see a general structure in which the nearshore water are
well mixed with DO concentrations between 6 and 8 mg/L. As the glider moves
offshore, the water column tends to be more stratified resulting in a more isolated bottom
layer. It is over these deeper layers that we see the largest vertical gradients between
surface and bottom waters and the lowest bottom DO concentrations.
3.4. Event Response: Summer Bloom 2011
During the summer of 2011, there was a large summer phytoplankton bloom that
formed in mid-July and continued through August. Based on satellite imagery the
phytoplankton concentrations were highest along the southern coast of New Jersey and
extended well offshore and upcoast
(Figure 11). Our August 2011
deployment targeted this bloom as we
adapted the mission plan to cover the
entire coastal area to one that would
sample in and outside of the largest
phytoplankton concentrations (upper
left, Figure 5, 6, and 7). We redirected
the glider along cross-bloom transects
through the highest concentrations
observed off the central coast of New
Jersey. As the glider moved south, the
DO concentrations of the bottom layer
dropped from 7 mg/L to around 4 mg/L.
While the surface layer concentration
remained above 6 mg/L along the entire
path. Beneath the bloom the ocean was
clearly stratified with DO concentrations Flgure 11: Tme color image of the summer 2011

(>200,000 cells/ml) and heterosigma akashiwo (8,000 cells/ml) (Based on laboratory
analysis of water samples taken by NJDEP, Robert Schuster, personal communications).
Based on Satellite imagery (not shown), the passing of Hurricane Irene pushed the bloom
up against the coast in late August before it broke up in mid September. Our deployment
in October, following the break up of the bloom, measured DO concentrations below 4.0
mg/L in the bottom layer. These lower concentrations, initially isolated from the surface
layer by the freshwater input resulting from Irene's rains, were mixed away by the end of
the October mission.

end of the path. The timing of the storm is shown as a red dashed line in each cross-section.
3.5 Event Response: Hurricane Irene
In late August 2011 Hurricane Irene tracked directly over the inner New Jersey
Shelf. The first deployment of this project captured this significant forcing event. Prior
to the storm passing, we modified the glider mission from the zigzag path toward Cape
May to one that maintained a cross-shelf line (Figure 3, upper left). The cross-shelf line
was timed so that the glider was in deeper water at the peak of the storm. In so doing we
were able to capture the evolution of the hydrographic (Figure 5 & 6, upper left) and
dissolved oxygen (Figure 7, upper left) fields before, during and after the storm. A
subsection of these data centered on the storm are shown in (Figure 12). A dramatic
impact of Hurricane Irene is seen in the temperature data. This section shows how
quickly the storm mixed the water column, transitioning from strongly stratified before
the storm to a deeper and weaker thermocline following the storm. This section gave us
our first look at how quickly the inner-shelf was impacted by a hurricane at this spatial
resolution. The impact of this rapid mixing and subsequent cooling of the ocean surface,
rapidly reduced Irene's intensity.
Similarly, the structure of the dissolved oxygen fields underwent a significant
transformation through the storm. Before the storm, there was a large gradient through
the water column with higher concentrations near the surface separated from lower
22
-------
oxygen values below the thermocline. The bimodal distribution illustrates this
stratification with the lower DO values of the bottom layer in the highest peak on the left
and the higher DO values in the small, more broad peak on the right (Figure 13).
Following the storm, the intense mixing weakened the strong DO gradient allowing
higher oxygen concentrations to penetrate deeper toward the seafloor. The distribution of
oxygen values in the pre-storm and post-storm sections shows a shift toward the middle
of the range (Figure 13). After the storm there are no observed concentrations below 4
mg/L or above 8 mg/L. There is still a bimodal distribution but it has shifted from the
pre-storm peaks of 5 mg/L and 7.5 mg/L to about 5.2 mg/L and 6.5 mg/L for the bottom
(left peak) and surface (right peak) layers respectively. The largest peak in the
distribution has also shifted from the lower concentrations of the bottom layer to the
higher concentrations of the surface layer.

4. Conclusions
With the effort of all on the team were able to successfully map the dissolved
oxygen concentration off the New Jersey coasts through 6 glider missions completed in
2011 and 2012. Each mission was carried out as prescribed in the QAPP document to
ensure the quality of the data collected. By following these specifications we documented
the required quality assurance steps for the AAnderra Optode, SeaBird CTD (pumped and
unpumped) and the glider platform itself. The missions were carried out with a predefined
path that was adjusted through consensus of the project partners to capture the variability in
the magnitude and structure of dissolved oxygen. Across all six missions, we observed DO
concentrations below 5 mg/L within the bottom layer, two of those saw concentrations
below 1 mg/L. The stratification setup by warm summer days was seen to trap this less
oxygenated bottom layer until wind events (both moderate and severe) mixed more
oxygenated water across this boundary. The sampling provided through the glider AUV
showed that the concentrations of dissolved oxygen were highly variable in the vertical,
horizontal, and through time.
The strongest gradients were observed across the thermocline with surface waters
23
-------
usually much more oxygenated than the bottom waters. These gradients were weaker closer
to the coast and significantly weakened following several strong wind events. Spatial
variability explained most of the variability with more mixed conditions in the shallow
waters near the coast and more stratified conditions in the deeper water offshore. It was
in the deeper waters offshore that most of the lower DO concentrations were found below
the thermocline. The scales of this variability observed over these two seasons was on the
order of 60-80 km in space and 3-4 days in time. We conclude that these decorrelation
scales are representative of the distance over which the water depth varied. The time scale
is more an indicator of the time it takes the glider to cover this distance rather than a change
across all space in time.
There were observed changes in time, predominately caused by strong (Hurricane
Irene) and moderate wind events that mixed the more oxygenated surface water with the
deeper less oxygenated water. During Hurricane Irene we saw rapid mixing of the more
oxygenated surface waters across the thermocline and into the bottom waters. In addition,
events like Irene and the coastal bloom in 2011 highlighted the capability to adapt pre-
determined missions to respond to these events. This allowed us to ensure that observations
were taken relative to the bloom throughout the storm. Since this was all done in real-time
the monitoring data was immediately available to NJDEP and EPA to inform their response
to these events. In the case of the bloom, the monitoring data guided NJDEP boat sampling
to further study the details of the bloom.
Based on these missions, we have begun to sample the dynamic coastal ocean
environment at the scales of known variability. The results show that while there are
persistent patterns in the dissolved oxygen fields associated with water depth and
stratification off our coasts, rapid changes can occur with varied responses across the region.
These results highlight the need to coordinate the high-resolution data sampled along the
gliders path with strategic point measurements in time. Based on these missions, a line of
at least two moored bottom DO time series stations oriented across the shelf would help to
distinguish the variability observed by the glider in space and time. These point
observations combined with the coast wide coverage of the glider would be able to identify
regions of low DO and characterize how they evolve through time. With these glider
missions we have begun to characterize the scales of variability. These scales can inform
State and Federal agencies as they refine criteria to assess the impact of low DO in the
coastal ocean in a way that accounts for its observed variability.

5.0 Special Training Needs/Certification
All glider related tasks and data management will be carried out by the
experienced team at Rutgers. As of the award of this contract from EPA to Rutgers
University, the Rutgers AUV team has completed 259 deployments and delivered quality
data to local, state, research and federal agencies. Each member of the Rutgers team has
been trained both in the lab and in the field. At sea experience specific to glider
operation will be required for each deployment and recovery. At least one individual on
the vessel must be certified by the lead PI to complete the deployment/recovery as
described in appendix C and D. This certification will be documented in the deployment
checklist. Additionally experience with oceanographic sensors and sensor care of at least
one year or equivalent manufacturer training is required. Operation of the glider and all
calibration procedures require no specific certification beyond the experience described
here.
6.0 Problem Definition/Background
6.1 Problem Definition
The coastal ocean is a highly variable system with processes that have significant
implications on the hydrographic and oxygen characteristics of the water column. The
spatial and temporal variability of these fields can cause dramatic changes to water
quality and in turn the health of the entire ecosystem. Both the New Jersey Department
of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) -
Region II have prioritized monitoring the coastal waters off New Jersey in their long-
term strategic plans as an essential component of the decision-making process. Of
particular interest are the spatial and temporal characteristics of dissolved oxygen (DO).
Hypoxic and anoxic conditions ripple through the entire ecosystem causing fish kills and
potentially large disruptions to local and remote food webs. In response to this need, we
4
A-5
-------
have put together a program to augment existing monitoring with targeted deployments
of glider Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVS) equipped with sensors to map
coastal hydrography and dissolved oxygen conditions in near-real time along the New
Jersey inner-shelf.
The study area for this project will be the coastal waters off the New Jersey coast
between Sandy Hook and Cape May. The glider will be tasked on a zig-zag pattern to
cover the waters within the 3 nm NJ jurisdiction (Figure 1). The objectives of this project
are to monitor the hydrography and dissolved oxygen of these coastal waters. We will
deploy a Slocum-electric glider 6 times (three per year) during the stratified summer
season. The primary users for the data generated by this project will be the EPA and the
water monitoring division of the NJDEP. During each mission the real-time data will be
used to map dissolved oxygen and water column stratification along the New Jersey
coast. Following each deployment the full quality controlled dataset will be delivered to
the EPA for inclusion in their coastal data archive.
Dissolved oxygen thresholds developed by EPA, NJDEP and Rutgers are based
on the state standard of 5.0 mg/1 and the EPA criteria of 2.3 mg/1 and 4.8 mg/1 (U.S. EPA,
2000). These thresholds will guide the use of the data throughout the project. If the
glider observes values below the state standard of 5.0 mg/1, the EPA and NJDEP will
determine the course of action including possible re-task of the glider and deployment of
additional assets to sample the region. In addition NJDEP will use these data to evaluate
the adoption of the EPA criteria of 4.8 mg/1 and 2.3 mg/1 as a state standard. The high-
resolution sampling approach of the glider will also be able to bound these areas of low
oxygen in time and space to guide both the response to significant events and the
adoption of potential new standards.
Based on these thresholds, a healthy marine environment will be defined as
having dissolved oxygen values higher than the State standard and EPA criteria (>5
mg/1). Conditions become hypoxic when these levels decrease below the 5.0 mg/1 limit
(State) and 4.8 mg/1 limit (EPA). More extreme events defined by dissolved oxygen
values below 2.3 mg/1 (EPA) fall below the limit of juvenile and adult survival (U.S.
EPA, 2000). For this project and fact sheet
describing these conditions in more detail will
be developed and made available to those
interested in accessing the data.
6.2 Background
The Rutgers University Institute of
Marine and Coastal Sciences (RU/EVICS) in
collaboration with the NJDEP Division of Water
Monitoring and Standards and the EPA Region
II demonstrated the use of the IMCS Slocum
glider to observe temperature, salinity, and
dissolved oxygen concentrations off the coast of
New Jersey. These near-shore missions provide
continuous measures of ocean temperature,
salinity, and dissolved oxygen. In the summer of
2009, a single deployment was completed to
Figure 1: Glider tracks for the three
coastal runs completed in 2010.

serve as a pilot. A glider was deployed on August 20, 2009 for 20 days covering 316
kilometers and generating 5,100 water-column profiles from the surface to near the ocean
floor. This deployment provided an increased horizontal, vertical, and temporal
resolution for dissolved oxygen in coastal ocean water conditions previously unavailable.
We tracked the evolving fields of dissolved oxygen and hydrography through upwelling
and coastal storm events (Ragsdale et al., 2011). In 2010, three missions were run from
late summer into fall. From late August through mid-November over 1,200 km of data
were collected in the waters just off the New Jersey coast (Figure 1). Procedures were
implemented to service the glider so that it could be redeployed in Sandy Hook, NJ
within one week of recovery in Cape May, NJ. Real-time hydrographic and oxygen data
was collected and posted to our public website and shared with Stevens Institute of
Technology for assimilation into their operational ocean forecast model. The experience
gained during these series of deployments has enabled us to customize glider hardware
and mission planning to operate in this challenging region of our coastal ocean.
7.0 Project/Task Description:
Glider AUVs: The research will use continuous ocean observations from a series of
glider deployments along the inner-shelf of the waters off the New Jersey coast. The
buoyancy-driven propulsion of these vehicles affords high efficiency and deployment
endurance approaching 30 days with alkaline batteries (Schofield et al., 2007). These
particular gliders have been operated jointly by Rutgers University Coastal Ocean
Observation Lab (RU COOL) scientists and Teledyne Webb Research Corporation
engineers in science experiments since 1999, transit!oning to sustained deployments by
the COOL Operations Center in 2003.
The vehicle preparation and deployments will leverage the significant federal
investment in the Rutgers University glider center. Initial glider preparation and
ballasting will be completed at the Rutgers center before each deployment. Throughout
the missions, the gliders will surface and connect via an onboard satellite modem to the

glider center at regular intervals, typically 3 hours. These surfacings provide an
opportunity to download the most recent data segment from the glider and send new
mission commands as needed to the glider. The most recent data transferred back from
the gliders will be automatically processed in real-time and visualized on the lab website
(http://rucool.marine.rutgers.edu/).
Through this work we will run three (3) deployments per year between July and
September (inclusive) in both 2011 and 2012. Based on prior experience it is anticipated
that each deployment will take about 21 days to complete. For each coastal run, the
glider will be deployed off Sandy Hook, NJ and run a zigzag track down the coast toward
Cape May, NJ (Figure 1). The precise location of the track will be dependent on
environmental conditions and accessible water depths. Prior to each deployment we will
meet with NJDEP and EPA to ensure that the planned mission path meets their
monitoring interests. Along this track the glider will sample temperature, salinity, and
density from the CTD and dissolved oxygen concentration and percent saturation from
the optode (Figure 2). Data will be stored locally on the glider and a subset of science
data will be sent back to Rutgers in real-time via the satellite link. The subset will consist
of every third data point within every third up and down profile. The resulting resolution
of this subset will be approximately 0.9m in the vertical and 110m in the horizontal.
After recovery of the glider, all data will be run through sensor specific QA/QC
verifications outlined in sections 10, 13-16 of this document before delivery to NJDEP
and EPA.
For each deployment the glider will be equipped with two main sensors, a pumped
Sea-Bird CTD (Model GPCTD_and an Aanderraa Optode (Model 3835/5014W). The CTD
will sample conductivity, temperature and pressure a rate of 0.5 Hz throughout the mission.
The pressure will be used to calculate depth. These data will be used to map ocean
temperature, salinity and density along the track. The optode will measure raw phase shifts
across a calibrated foil that when combined with measured temperature from the CTD will
give measures of dissolved oxygen concentration and percent saturation at a rate of 1 Hz.

8.0 Quality Objectives and Criteria for Measurement Data
The quality objectives for this project will be categorized as real-time and post
processed. The real-time data are those subset of data that are sent back to Rutgers during
the mission via the satellite link. The transmission is a data subset to reduce file size that
will 1) reduce time on the surface when the glider is most vulnerable to damage and 2)
7
A-8
-------
reduce the airtime on the expensive satellite link. During each deployment the data will be
logged locally on the glider with the glider manufacturer software on 2 Silicon Systems 2.0
GB flash drives powered by the glider batteries. The glider engineering data will be logged
every 4 seconds and the science data will be logged at the sample rate for each sensor (CTD:
2 seconds, Optode: 1 second). Following recovery of the glider the entire dataset logged
locally on the glider will be recovered and used to construct the post-processed dataset.
Geo-location for all glider collected data will be determined with an on board GPS,
three-dimensional attitude sensor (heading, pitch, and roll), two pressure sensors (redundant
depth) and an altimeter (height above the seabed). All sensors will be checked for accuracy
prior to and following each deployment as described and documented in the pre- and post-
deployment worksheets (Appendix A and E). If any values are found out of the acceptable
range reported by the component manufacturers, they will be recalibrated and documented
in the worksheets.

NJDEP data are hosted on local machines at Rutgers as part of other projects. These data
will be accessed directly from these machines using OPeNDAP protocols. The remote
sensed data will provide maps of currents and other sea-surface conditions to guide the
specific piloting decisions related to these missions. These data meet the quality criteria
required to guide the glider missions along the New Jersey coast based on assessments
generated by the data providers.
10.0 Field Monitoring Requirements
10.1 Monitoring Process Design
This plan is based on manufacturers recommendations, the scientific literature, and
our own experience collecting data from autonomous gliders off the coast of New Jersey
since 2003.
Deployment description: We will focus these sections on the coastal waters from
Sandy Hook to Cape May between the 5 and 30 meter isobaths. The Slocum glider that
we will use in this project transfers vertical motion generated by changing buoyancy into
horizontal motion on the order of 20-30 cm/s. The result is a saw-toothed pattern that
allows the vehicle to sample the water column from the surface to the bottom along its
glide path with high spatial resolution (on the order of 100m). This particular glider has
the shallow water capabilities and sensor payload required for this work. It is equipped
with a pumped Sea-bird CTD for hydrographic measurements and an Aanderraa Optode
for dissolved oxygen measurements. In addition to this sensor payload, the glider will be
a next generation G2 model from Teledyne Webb Research with significant durability
upgrades. The buoyancy drive configuration for this vehicle will allow it to operate in
waters from 5 to 30 meters deep. This shallower operating range will allow us to extend
the glider lines closer to the coast than in previous missions. The location and time of
the data collected by the glider will be recorded on board and transmitted periodically to
shore via the satellite link at each surfacing. The geo-location of these data will be
determined based on an on board GPS, attitude sensor (compass, pitch and roll), pressure
(depth) and altimeter (height above the bottom). Horizontal location will be determined
through a linear interpolation based on time of the data points between the known GPS
positions recorded at each surfacing event. GPS locations will be determined with an
onboard Garmin GPS (model: GPS15L-W) with a standard accuracy of <15m. This unit
has been flown on glider missions around the world including those operated by Rutgers
and The U.S. Navy. Time will be recorded on two separate onboard processors and
maintained through automatic synchronization with the GPS clock at each surfacing. The
pressure sensor incorporated into the pumped CTD will be used to determine the depth of
the measurement. These methods reduce the uncertainty on the sub-surface data location
and are consistent with those carried out on the previous 259 deployments completed by
the Rutgers glider team.
10.2 Monitoring Methods
All data related to this project will be collected using a G2 glider purchased from
Teledyne Webb Research customized for shallow water application. This glider will be
equipped with a Sea-Bird pumped CTD and Aanderra Optode. Prior to each deployment the
preferred path will be determined through a meeting between Rutgers, EPA, and NJDEP.
9
A-10
-------
The glider will be tasked along this path and programmed to sample the CTD at 0.5 Hz and
the optode at 1.0 Hz throughout the mission. A detailed description of the deployment and
recovery procedures and required equipment can be found in Appendix H, I, and J of this
document.
The primary mission of each deployment will be to sample the coastal waters
between Sandy Hook and Cape May. Two possible scenarios could modify this initial plan.
1) Weather-related mission modifications: In the event of a significant coastal
storm or high current event, the experienced Rutgers pilots will make
modifications to the path to ensure that the glider will not be put in danger and
can continue its primary mission to monitor the waters between Cape May and
Sandy Hook. In each case, Rutgers will forward mission changes to the EPA
project officer via email with copies to the project team.
2) Significant Hypoxic Event: If the glider identifies a region of low oxygen
(concentration < 2ppm), it could be retasked to temporarily suspend the mission
and survey the low oxygen area. Based on battery estimates this sampling
could be carried out for approximately 3 to 4 days without affecting the mission
duration. In this case, EPA will notify Josh Kohut at Rutgers of the interest to
suspend the primary mission and modify the mission waypoints. Rutgers will
then respond with an email to the EPA Project Officer with copies to the project
team outlining the details on the new mission path.
In the event of equipment malfunction or damage that will not allow the glider to
continue its mission, it will be tasked to remain at the surface until a vessel can be arranged
for recovery. Depending on the severity of the issue, the glider will be repaired and returned
to operation starting at either the recovery location to continue its previous mission or at
Sandy Hook to start a new mission. The starting location will be determined through a
meeting between Rutgers, EPA, and NJDEP and will be dependent on the length of the time
the glider is under repair.
Throughout the missions glider engineering and science data will be logged on two
2.0 GB flash drives. These data will be stored locally until the conclusion of the mission.
During the mission a subset of these data will be downloaded to a server on the Rutgers
network every 3 hours coinciding with a surface event. These data will be subset to meet
the criteria outlined in the table in section 8.0.
10.3 Field Quality Control
Before and after a given deployment:
Sea-bird CTD: The CTD will be referenced to a second, factory calibrated CTD in a
seawater tank before each deployment as part of the ballasting procedure. A second
reference will be generated with a full water column cast using the same calibrated CTD at
the deployment and recovery location. These reference profiles will be compared with CTD
profiles recorded by the glider. Using the satellite link, data collected on the glider will be
uploaded to the lab and compared with the in situ data. If the data comparisons fall within
the comparability criteria outlined in section 8 of this document, the glider data will be
distributed to project partners and users identified above. Following each mission the glider
10
A-11
-------
CTD will be cleaned as recommended from the manufacturer. Reference CTD profiles
taken at the recovery site will be compared to glider profiles recorded just before recovery to
ensure data consistency. All steps will be documented as shown in Appendix (A and B).
Aanderraa Optode: Before each deployment the we will confirm the DO sensor
factory calibration with the two point test (0% and 100% saturation) described in the owners
manual. The results of these tests will confirm the most recent factory calibration. Any
drift observed between the pre- and post-deployment tests will be used to linearly correct the
data in time throughout the mission. All steps will be documented in pre- and post-
deployment sheets as shown in Appendix B.

Data post-processing following each deployment:
Prior to data delivery to NJDEP and EPA, all sensor specific QA/QC will be applied
including time offsets and thermal corrections. These techniques will be followed based on
the scientific literature and manufacturer recommendations. All processing will be based on
the extensive infrastructure already in place at Rutgers to support the 259 missions already
flown from the command center.
Sea-bird CTD: During the mission, 2 corrections will be applied to the real-time
CTD dataset: 1) The temperature and conductivity sensors on the instrument have different
measurement response times, thus the 2 independent measurements are aligned with respect
to time so that each CTD record represents a measurement on a single parcel of water. This
time shift is accounted for by the known flow rate of the pump on the CTD. 2) The second
correction results from the thermal mass of the conductivity cell and this effect on the
resulting salinity calculation. The CTD temperature is measured outside of the conductivity
cell while the conductivity is measured inside the cell. In addition, the conductivity cell is
made of borosilicate glass and is capable of storing heat from the surrounding water inside
the wall of the cell, resulting in a heating or cooling of new water parcels as they pass
through the cell. The result of this configuration is that the measured conductivity and
11
A-12
-------
temperature used to calculate salinity will result in erroneous salinity values, especially
across strong thermoclines. A method has been developed which allows us to correct for
this heating inside the cell, resulting in more accurate salinity profiles (Morison, J.R., et. al.,
1994). A description of the method with glider specific examples can be found in Garau, B.,
et. al.,2011).
Aanderraa Optode: The calculation of oxygen concentration and saturation is based
on the measured phase shifts from optode and the concurrent temperature values from the
CTD. We will align these two measurements based on manufacturer suggestions and
combine them to get the observed dissolved oxygen data. This will be done in accordance
with the manufacturers manual section titled : 'External calculation of Oxygen'. The
description is attached as appendix G.
11.0 Analytical Requirements
The analytical requirements for this project are restricted to the Winkler titrations
used in the 2-point oxygen tests to confirm the calibration of the optode. The analytical
methods and quality control for these titrations will be carried out as described in EPA
Method 360.2 attached as Appendix F.
12.0 Sample Handling and Custody Requirements
The samples collected in the lab as part of the optode two point tests will be
immediately transferred for the titration method described in EPA method 360.2
(Appendix F).
13.0 Testing, Inspection, Maintenance, and Calibration Requirements
13.1 Instrument/Equipment Testing, Inspection and Maintenance
Sea-bird CTD: The CTD will be inspected and tested as outlined in Appendix A.
This includes a visual inspection, instrument cleaning before and after each deployment
and comparisons with additional CTD data both in the tank and in situ during deployment
and recovery. These procedures as followed are outlined in the manual drafted by the
manufacturer.
Aanderaa Optode: The Aanderra Optode will be inspected and tested before and
after the deployment as described in Appendix B. This includes visual inspection of the
membrane to detect degradation, and 2 point calibration testing before and after each
deployment. These procedures will be conducted in accordance with those outlined in
the manufacturers manual.
Glider Vehicle: The glider itself will be inspected and tested before and after
each deployment as described in Appendix A and E. This includes confirmation of
proper operation of the gliders position (GPS), time of measurement (onboard
processors), heading (Compass), and depth (pressure).
13.2 Instrument/Equipment Calibration and Frequency
Sea-bird CTD: The CTD will be calibrated by the factory annually prior to each
set of summer deployments. This is in accordance with recommended annual factory
calibrations from the manufacturer. In addition to these factory calibrations, comparisons
will be made with in situ CTD measurements from another Sea-Bird CTD in the ballast
tank and with a concurrent profile in the field both before and following each
12
A-13
-------
deployment. These will be used to confirm the factory calibration.
Aanderaa Optode: The optode will be calibrated by the factory prior to each set
of summer deployments. This is in accordance with recommended annual factory
calibrations from the manufacturer. In addition to these factory calibrations, a 2 point
calibration will be conducted at Rutgers both before and after each deployment. This
test will be conducted as outlined in the manufactures manual. These will be used to
confirm the factory calibration.
Glider Vehicle. The three-dimensional attitude sensor will be calibrated as
required to ensure accurate measures of heading, pitch, and roll. These calibrations will
be no more than one year apart.
13.3 Inspection/Acceptance of Supplies and Consumables
Reagents used for the dissolved oxygen titrations will be purchased for each test.
All reagents will be purchased and utilized as prescribed in the test-kit manufacturer
manual.
14.0 Data Management
The data management for this project will be based on the considerable
infrastructure already in place at Rutgers to support glider operations. For each
deployment the complete dataset will be stored locally on the glider. In addition a subset
of the data files recorded by the glider in real-time is transferred back to shore via the
satellite communication system. Once the binary encoded files arrive on shore, they are
converted to ascii text using a set of unix utilities. These files are then archived to a
fileserver at the Institute of Marine and Coastal Sciences, where they are backed up daily.
The Matlab programming language will be used to process the raw data stream.
Scientific (i.e., temperature, conductivity, depth) parameters are merged with the glider
navigational parameters (i.e., GPS, timestamps) and are stored in organized data
structures, which are saved to the IMCS fileserver in near real-time. The following
quality control checks are then performed:
1. Duplicate timestamps are removed.
2. Invalid GPS fixes are removed using an algorithm that eliminates fixes that result
in impossible surface drift velocities (>10 m/s).
3. Invalid temperature and salinity values are removed based upon expected
hydrographic values that occur at the time of deployment (summer conditions).
Values more than 2 standard deviations outside these ranges will be removed.
4. Differences in the temperature and conductivity sampling are corrected by
aligning the measurements in the time domain based on successive profiles.
5. The aligned temperature and conductivity values are used to calculate ocean
salinity values and these values are then corrected for thermal inertia to get rid of
artificial salinity spiking (Garau, B., et. al., 2011; Morison, J.R., et. al., 1994).
6. Oxygen values from the optode are aligned by shifting them in the time domain
by a pre-determined number of seconds based on manufacturer recommendations
and confirmed by comparing successive profiles.
Real-time glider health and deployment status will also be available on the internet at:
13
A-14
-------
http://tnarine.rutgers.edu/cool/auvs
This webpage will include plots of relevant scientific parameters (temperature,
salinity, density, oxygen concentration, etc.) and maps showing the gliders path and
intended waypoints. These processed datasets will be made available in near real-time in
the NetCDF file format via the Thematic Real-time Environmental Data Distribution
System (THREDDS). While the glider is in its mission the real-time distributed data
will be considered provisional until the complete dataset is quality controlled after
recovery. During the deployment, if any of these provisional data fall outside the criteria
listed in section 8 of this document under 'real-time', they will be flagged and removed
from the data stream.
Once the glider has been recovered, files containing the full datasets are
downloaded and the previous steps are repeated, providing the end user with the complete
scientific and navigational data streams. All levels of these processing will be stored on
the file server and backed-up daily throughout the project. Upon completion of a given
deployment a copy of all data will be delivered to the EPA project officer with the
documentation described in section 15 of this document.
15.0 Assessments/Oversight
The calibration, testing, maintenance for each deployment will be documented.
This documentation includes:
1) a pre-deployment check out (Appendix A)
2) a pre-deployment check out for the optode (Appendix B)
3) a deployment checklist (Appendix C)
4) a recovery checklist (Appendix D)
5) a post-deployment checklist (Appendix E)
6) manufacturer calibration documentation
A deployment packet will be made up of all the above documents and a hardcopy of the
data. For each deployment the Rutgers team will ensure that all are filled out completely
and accurately. Throughout the deployments, EPA will be permitted to field audit the
project.
16.0 Data Review, Verification, and Usability
16.1 Data Review, Verification, and Validation
Josh Kohut and Chip Haldeman will ensure that all testing, maintenance and
inspection is completed before and after each deployment. These steps will be
documented and complied in the deployment reports described in section 15 of this
document. The checkout and checklist documents listed in the appendix of this document
will ensure that all steps are included. Josh Kohut and John Kerfoot will ensure that all
quality control processing and assessment is carried out on all real-time and post-
processed data prior to delivery to EPA. Any deviations from the QAPP/SOPs will be
documented.
16.2 Reconciliation with User Requirements
Following each deployment, the final quality controlled data will be within the
criteria described in section 8 of this document. If a value is found outside these criteria,
14
A-15
-------
it will be flagged in the final dataset. Each data point will be treated independently so
that any one point flagged will not restrict use of the other quality data from the same
deployment.
17.0 Reporting, Documents, and Records
The project will generate deployment reports and a final report. The deployment
report will document all glider and sensor preparation, maintenance, calibration, and
inspection. These reports will be labeled with glider name, deployment number, and
deployments dates. These reports will include all components described in section 15 of
this document. Two copies will be generated for each of the 6 deployments. The first
copy will be sent to the EPA project officer in both hard copy and PDF forms. The
second copy will remain at Rutgers with Josh Kohut the Rutgers project lead.
Rutgers will also prepare and submit a final report to the EPA project officer
documenting the results of the data collection, the validation/verification of the results,
and the final standard operating procedures conducted for all 6 deployments. This report
will summarize the information contained in the deployment reports described above.
Additional documents resulting from this work could include public and scientific
presentations and articles submitted to the peer review literature. The real-time and post
processed data for each mission will be maintained on the Rutgers file server described in
Section 14.0 of this document for at least 7 years following the conclusion of each
deployment. The documentation will also be retained in electronic and hardcopy forms
for at least 7 years following the each deployment. The 7 year time horizon in consistent
with NJDEP standards.

METHOD #: 360.2 Approved for NPDES (Issued 1971)
TITLE: Oxygen, Dissolved (Modified Winkler, Full-Bottle
Technique)
ANALYTE: CAS # O Oxygen 7782-44-7
INSTRUMENTATION: Titration, Probe
STORET No. 00300
1.0 Scope and Application
1.1 This method is applicable for use with most wastewaters and streams that
contain nitrate nitrogen and not more than 1 mg/L of ferrous iron. Other
reducing or oxidizing materials should be absent. If 1 mL of fluoride solution
is added before acidifying the sample and there is no delay in titration, the
method is also applicable in the presence of 100 200 mg/L ferric iron.
1.2 The Dissolved Oxygen (DO) Probe technique gives comparable results on all
samples types.
1.3 The azide modification is not applicable under the following conditions: (a)
samples containing sulfite, thiosulfate, polythionate, appreciable quantities of
free chlorine or hypochlorite; (b) samples high in suspended solids; (c) samples
containing organic substances which are readily oxidized in a highly alkaline
solution, or which are oxidized by free iodine in an acid solution; (d) untreated
domestic sewage; (e) biological floes; and (f) where sample color interferes with
endpoint detection. In instances where the azide modification is not applicable,
the DO probe should be used.
2.0 Summary of Method
2.1 The sample is treated with manganous sulfate, potassium hydroxide, and
potassium iodide (the latter two reagents combined in one solution) and finally
sulfuric acid. The initial precipitate of manganous hydroxide, Mn(OH)2,
combines with the dissolved oxygen in the sample to form a brown precipitate,
manganic hydroxide, MnO(OH)2,. Upon acidification, the manganic hydroxide
forms manganic sulfate which acts as an oxidizing agent to release free iodine
from the potassium iodide. The iodine, which is stoichiometrically equivalent
to the dissolved oxygen in the sample is then titrated with sodium thiosulfate
or phenylarsine oxide (PAO).
3.0 Interferences
3.1 There are a number of interferences to the dissolved oxygen test, including
oxidizing and reducing agents, nitrate ion, ferrous iron, and organic matter.
3.2 Various modifications of the original Winkler procedure for dissolved oxygen
have been developed to compensate for or eliminate interferences. The
Alsterberg modification is commonly used to successfully eliminate the nitrite
A-25
-------
interference, the Rideal-Stewart modification is designed to eliminate ferrous
iron interference, and the Theriault procedure is used to compensate for high
concentration of organic materials.
3.3 Most of the common interferences in the Winkler procedure may be overcome
by use of the dissolved oxygen probe.
4.0 Sample Handling and Preservation
4.1 Where possible, collect the sample in a 300 mL BOD incubation bottle. Special
precautions are required to avoid entertainment or solution of atmospheric
oxygen or loss of dissolved oxygen.
4.2 Where samples are collected from shallow depths (less than 5 feet), use of an
APHA-type sampler is recommended. Use of a Kemmerer type sampler is
recommended for samples collected from depths of greater than 5 feet.
4.3 When a Kemmerer sampler is used, the BOD sample bottle should be filled to
overflowing, (overflow for approximately 10 seconds). Outlet tube of
Kemmerer should be inserted to bottom of BOD bottle. Care must be taken to
prevent turbulence and the formation of bubbles when filling bottle.
4.4 At time of sampling, the sample temperature should be recorded as precisely
as required.
4.5 Do not delay the determination of dissolved oxygen in samples having an
appreciable iodine demand or containing ferrous iron. If samples must be
preserved either method (4.5.1) or (4.5.2) below, may be employed.
4.5.1 Add 2 mL of manganous sulfate solution (6.1 ) and then 2 mL of
alkaline iodide-azide solution (6.2) to the sample contained in the BOD
bottle. Both reagents must be added well below the surface of the
liquid. Stopper the bottle immediately and mix the contents thoroughly.
The sample should be stored at the temperature of the collection water,
or water sealed and kept at a temperature of 10 to 20°C, in the dark.
Complete the procedure by adding 2 mL H2SO4 (see 7.1 ) at time of
analysis.
4.5.2 Add 0.7 mL of cone. H2SO4 (6.3) and 1 mL sodium azide solution (2 g
NaN3 in 100 mL distilled water) to sample in the BOD bottle. Store
sample as in (4.5.1). Complete the procedure using 2 mL of manganous
sulfate solution (6.1), 3 mL alkaline iodide-azide solution (6.2), and 2
mL of cone. H2SO4 (6.3) at time of analysis.
4.6 If either preservation technique is employed, complete the analysis within 4-8
hours after sampling.
5.0 Apparatus
5.1 Sample bottles-300 mL ±3 mL capacity BOD incubation bottles with tapered
ground glass pointed stoppers and flared mouths.
5.2 Pipets-with elongated tips capable of delivering 2.0 mL ±0.10 mL of reagent.
6.0 Reagents
6.1 Manganous sulfate solution: Dissolve 480 g manganous sulfate (MnSO4»4H2O)
in distilled water and dilute to 1 liter.
6.1.1 Alternatively, use 400 g of MnSO4«4H2O or 364 g of MnSQ »4tf O per
A-26
-------
liter. When uncertainty exists regarding the water of crystallization, a
solution of equivalent strength may be obtained by adjusting the
specific gravity of the solution to 1.270 at 20°C.
6.2 Alkaline iodide-azide solution: Dissolve 500 g of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) or
700 g of potassium hydroxide (KOH) and 135 g of sodium iodide (Nai) or 150
g of potassium iodide (KI) in distilled water and dilute to 1 liter. To this
solution add 10 g of solution azide (NaN3) dissolved in 40 mL of distilled
water.
6.3 Sulfuric acid: concentrated.
6.4 Starch solution: Prepare an emulsion of 10 g soluble starch in a mortar or
beaker with a small quantity of distilled water. Pour this emulsion into 1 liter
of boiling water, allow to boil a few minutes, and let settle overnight. Use the
clear supernate. This solution may be preserved by the addition of 5 mL per
liter of chloroform and storage in a 10°C refrigerator.
6.4.1 Dry, powdered starch indicators such as "thyodene" may be used in
place of starch solution.
6.5 Potassium fluoride solution: Dissolve 40 g KF 2H2O in distilled water and
dilute to 100 mL.
6.6 Sodium thiosulfate, stock solution, 0.75 N: Dissolve 186.15 g Na2S2O3»5H2O in
boiled and cooled distilled water and dilute to 1 liter. Preserve by adding 5 mL
chloroform.
6.7 Sodium thiosulfate standard titrant, 0.0375 N: Prepare by diluting 50.0 mL of
stock solution to 1 liter. Preserve by adding 5 mL of chloroform. Standard
sodium thiosulfate, exactly 0.0375 N is equivalent to 0.300 mg of DO per 1.00
mL. Standardize with 0.0375 N potassium biiodate.
6.8 Potassium biiodate standard, 0.0375 N: For stock solution, dissolve 4.873 g of
potassium, biiodate, previously dried 2 hours at 103°C, in 1000 mL of distilled
water. To prepare working standard, dilute 250 mL to 1000 mL for 0.0375 N
biiodate solution.
6.9 Standardization of 0.0375 N sodium thiosulfate: Dissolve approximately 2 g
(±1.0 g) KI in 100 to 150 mL distilled water; add 10 mL of 10% H2SO4 followed
by 20.0 mL standard potassium biiodate (6.8). Place in dark for 5 minutes,
dilute to 300 ml, and titrate with the standard sodium thiosulfate (6.7) to a
pale straw color. Add 1-2 mL starch solution and continue the titration drop
by drop until the blue color disappears. Run in duplicate. Duplicate
determinations should agree within ± 0.05 mL.
6.10 As an alternative to the sodium thiosulfate, phenylarsine oxide (PAO) may be
used. This is available, already standardized, from commercial sources.
7.0 Procedure
7.1 To the sample collected in the BOD incubation bottle, add 2 mL of the
manganous sulfate solution (6.1) followed by 2 mL of the alkaline iodide-azide
solution (6.2), well below the surface of the liquid; stopper with care to exclude
air bubbles, and mix well by inverting the bottle several times. When the
precipitate settles, leaving a clear supernatant above the manganese hydroxide
floe, shake again. When settling has produced at least 200 mL of clear
supernatant, carefully remove the stopper and immediately add 2 mL of cone.
H2SO4 (6.3) (sulfamic acid packets, 3 g may be substituted for Ji SO ) (1) by
allowing the acid to run down the neck of the bottle, re-stopper, and mix by
A-27
-------
gentle inversion until the iodine is uniformly distributed throughout the bottle.
Complete the analysis within 45 minutes.
7.2 Transfer the entire bottle contents by inversion into a 500 mL wide mouth flask
and titrate with 0.0375 N thiosulfate solution (6.7) (0.0375 N phenyarsine oxide
(PAO) may be substituted as titrant) to pale straw color. Add 1-2 mL of starch
solution (6.4) or 0.1 g of powdered indicator and continue to titrate to the first
disappearance of the blue color.
7.3 If ferric iron is present (100 to 200 mg/L), add 1.0 mL of KF (6.5) solution
before acidification.
7.4 Occasionally, a dark brown or black precipitate persists in the bottle after
acidification. This precipitate will dissolve if the solution is kept for a few
minutes longer than usual or, if particularly persistent, a few more drops of
H2S04 wiH effect dissolution.
8.0 Calculation
8.1 Each mL of 0.0375N sodium thiosulfate (or PAO) titrant is equivalent to 1 mg
DO when the entire bottle contents are titrated.
8.2 If the results are desired in milliliters of oxygen gas per liter at 0°C and 760
mm pressure multiply mg/L DO by 0.698.
8.3 To express the results as percent saturation at 760 mm atmospheric pressure,
the solubility data in Table 422:1 (Whipple & Whipple, p 446-447, Standard
Methods, 14th Edition) may be used. Equations for correcting the solubilities to
barometric pressures other than mean sea level are given below the table.
8.4 The solubility of DO in distilled water at any barometric pressure, p (mm Hg),
temperature, T °C, and saturated vapor pressure, fj, (mm Hg), for the given T,
may be calculated between the temperature of 0° and 30°C by:
ml/L DO = (P - * X °-678
35 + T
and between 30° and 50°C by:
ml/L DO = (P - ^ X °-827
49 + T
9.0 Precision and Accuracy
9.1 Exact data are unavailable on the precision and accuracy of this technique;
however, reproducibility is approximately 0.2 mg/L of DO at the 7.5 mg/L
level due to equipment tolerances and uncompensated displacement errors.

Page 54 April 2007 - TD 21 8 OPERATING MANUAL - OXYGEN OPTODES
Appendix 8 Calculate the Oxygen Externally
If the Optode is mounted on a CTD and the CTD is equipped with a fast responding temperature
sensor it might be desirable to do the temperature compensation externally. This will improve the
accuracy when subjected to fast temperature changes (when going through a gradient). The
Optode must then be configured to output differential phase shift information (DPhase). Based
on this data and the temperature data from the CTD, the oxygen concentration can be calculated
by use of the following formula:
[O2 ] = COCoef + CICoef • P + C2Coef • P2 + C3Coef • P3 + C4Coef • P4
P is the measured phase shift (DPhase) and the COCoef'to C¥Coe/are temperature dependent
coefficients calculated as:
CxCoef = CxCoef0 + CxCoef, • t + CxCoef2 • t2 + CxCoef-t3
The CxCoefo-3 are the foil characterizing coefficients found in the Calibration Certificate for the
Sensing Foil 3853, and t is external temperature in °C.
An Excel sheet that includes these calculations is available by contacting the factory.
If the CTD is not able to receive the RS232 output, the Oxygen Optode 3975 with analogue
output can be used. The two channel "intelligent" digital to analogue converter supplied with this
sensor is able to output two channels of your selection (including DPhase). By setting the
Output property to -103 the Optode 3975 will output phase (10 to 70°) at analogue output 1
(refer to Table 3-4 at page 23).

Amendment 1: Use of YSI CastAway CTD
The YSI CastAway CTD is a small self-contained lightweight CTD that is GPS
enabled. The flow through cell houses a suite of instruments that measure water
temperature, conductivity and pressure. The manufacturer specifications for each
parameter are listed in the table below. For more detailed information on the
CastAway please visit the YSI website at: www.ysi.com.

The purpose of this amendment is to authorize the substitution of the SEE-19
described in the QAPP with the CastAway. Both CTDs will be used for side-by-side
comparison profiles with the glider at the deployment and recovery of the vehicle.
The small size of the CastAway permits a safer deployment/recovery in rough
weather or from a small vessel. In addition, the self-contained data collection
eliminates the need for a laptop and the required external power.
It will be the judgment of Josh Kohut the Rutgers lead on this project to
determine weather conditions require the use of the CastAway instead of the SBE-
19. The decision will be based on forecasted sea-state and vessel characteristics at
the time of recovery or deployment. The decision will be communicated to each
signatory of the QAPP in via email.
A-37
-------
Amendment 2: Use of non-factory calibrated Glider CTD
The purpose of this amendment is to authorize the use of a glider installed SeaBird
CTD that has not met the annual factory calibration criteria. In the case that
equipment loss and project deployment timeline does not permit the delay of a
lengthy factory calibration, a CTD that has not been calibrated within the last year
could be substituted given the following:
1} The substituted CT was factory calibrated no more than five years prior to
deployment.
2} The substituted CTD meets the requirements outlined in the table listed in
Section 8 of this QAPP relative to the SeaBird-19 (calibrated within the lastyear}.
If a CTD meeting these requirements is used in a given deployment, a statement will
be included with the deployment documentation. The statement will specify that
the CTD was not factory calibrated in the lastyear, calibration checks were
preformed, and the data meets the QC criteria specified in the QAPP.

-------
Amendments: Use of manufacturer-suggested replacement for
dissolved oxygen field titration kit
Verification of AAnderaa oxygen optode calibration is conducted via the azide
modification of the Winkler titration method, pursuant to EPA method # 360.2. This test
involved the usage of EPA compliant field kits manufactured by Lamotte Company,
purchased from Fisher Scientific. This kit (item # S45088) has been discontinued, but the
manufacturer has issued a replacement kit (item # S94979) that uses a liquid sulfamic
acid instead of a powdered version. This kit will be used to verify oxygen optode
calibrations for the remainder of this project. Methodology will remain the same.
Amendment 4: Use of multiple gliders to complete remaining
coastal glider flights
Losses incurred throughout the duration of this project have led to the usage of Slocum
gliders other than the glider initially purchased by the NJ DEP. The glider used for the
second coastal monitoring run, RU07, will be used again for this project, starting with a
coastal flight in June 2012. The glider purchased by the NJ DEP, RU28, was struck and
sunk by a cargo ship and later recovered. This glider has been rebuilt by the
manufacturer and is scheduled to be delivered to Rutgers by the end of May 2012. The
ability to use these two gliders interchangeably provides some flexibility in the project
while adhering to the standards in the QAPP. Glider RU07 can carry one of 3 payload
bays that will meet the standards set forth in this document for CTD calibration criteria.
Bay 1 is CTD and oxygen only. In addition to these sensors, Bay 2 carries one optical
puck (Wetlabs EcoPuck BBFL2-599, calibration date 29Jan2009), with two channels of
fluorometry (chl a and CDOM) and one channel of backscatter at 470 nm. Bay 3 carries
CTD, oxygen, and two optical pucks (BB3-796, calibration date 16Dec2010; BBFL2-
338, calibration date 1 !May2011) measuring backscatter at 470, 532, 650, and 880 nm
and fluorescence for chl a and CDOM. Data from the EcoPucks would be provisional as
calibration dates fall outside of the limits set forth in this document, but can provide a
qualitative understanding of the physical and biological coupling present during the
coastal monitoring flights.
A-39
-------
Amendment 5: Updated glider check-out lists
As the Rutgers glider program continues to expand, best practices and procedures are
often refined, pursuant to operational experience. As such, preparatory checklists are
updated to include new or more thorough procedures, as well as accounting for changes
from the manufacturer, such as software updates internal to the glider.
Attached are three documents that have been updated since the fall coastal monitoring
run has been completed. They are:
1.) Pre-deployment check-out (Appendix A)
2.) Deployment checklist (Appendix C)
3.) Post-Deployment checklist (Appendix E)
Appendix A has been updated with checks to avoid issues that we have recently seen in
the field, including uncalibrated compasses resulting in the inability to attain specified
headings and therefore necessitating recovery vs. continuing flight.
Appendix C has been modified slightly to include new preliminary test mission names,
aimed at reducing confusion on the part of the deployment technician, which can often be
students or those otherwise unfamiliar with the intricacies of glider operations.
Appendix D has been modified with the intent of streamlining the data backup process,
thereby removing single point failures.

Temperature sensors are normally calibrated 'as received', without adjustments, allowing a determination sensor drift.
If the calibration identifies a problem, then a second calibration is performed after work is completed. The 'as received'
calibration is not performed if the sensor is damaged or non-functional, or by customer request.
An 'as received' calibration certificate is provided, listing coefficients to convert sensor frequency to temperature. Users
must choose whether the 'as received' calibration or the previous calibration better represents the sensor condition
during deployment. In SEASOFT enter the chosen coefficients using the program SEACON. The coefficient'offset'
allows a small correction for drift between calibrations (consult the SEASOFT manual). Calibration coefficients
obtained after a repair apply only to subsequent data.

Temperature sensors are normally calibrated 'as received', without adjustments, allowing a determination sensor drift.
If the calibration identifies a problem, then a second calibration is performed after work is completed. The 'as received'
calibration is not performed if the sensor is damaged or non-functional, or by customer request.
An 'as received' calibration certificate is provided, listing coefficients to convert sensor frequency to temperature. Users
must choose whether the 'as received' calibration or the previous calibration better represents the sensor condition
during deployment. In SEASOFT enter the chosen coefficients using the program SEACON. The coefficient'offset'
allows a small correction for drift between calibrations (consult the SEASOFT manual). Calibration coefficients
obtained after a repair apply only to subsequent data.

Temperature sensors are normally calibrated 'as received', without adjustments, allowing a determination sensor drift. If
the calibration identifies a problem, then a second calibration is performed after work is completed. The 'as received'
calibration is not performed if the sensor is damaged or non-functional, or by customer request.
An 'as received' calibration certificate is provided, listing coefficients to convert sensor frequency to temperature. Users
must choose whether the 'as received' calibration or the previous calibration better represents the sensor condition
during deployment. In SEASOFT enter the chosen coefficients. The coefficient 'offset'allows a small correction for
drift between calibrations (consult the SEASOFT manual). Calibration coefficients obtained after a repair apply only to
subsequent data.

The conductivity cell was replaced.
* Measured at 3.0 S/m
Cell cleaning and electrode replatinizing tend to 'reset' the conductivity sensor to its original condition. Lack of drift in
post-cleaning-calibration indicates geometric stability of the cell and electrical stability of the sensor circuit.

Temperature sensors are normally calibrated 'as received', without adjustments, allowing a determination sensor drift. If
the caJibraiion identifies a problem, then a second calibration Is performed after work Is completed. The 'as received'
calibration Is not performed If the sensor Is damaged or nonfunctional, or by customer request.
An 'as received' calibration certificate Is provided, listing coefficients to convert sensor frequency to temperature. Users
must cboose whether the 'as received' calibration or the previous calibration better represents the sensor condition
during deployment, In SEASOFT enter the chosen coefficients. The coefficient'offset'allows a small correction for
drift between calibrations (consult the SEASOFT manual). Calibration coefficients obtained after a repair apply only to
subsequent data.

Conductivity season ere normally calibrated 'at received', without cleaning or adjustments, allowing a determination of
sensor drift. If the calibration identifies a problem or Indicates cell cleaning is necessary, then a second calibration Is
performed after work Is completed. The 'as received' calibration Is not performed if the sensor is damaged or non-
functional, or by customer request
An 'as received' calibration certificate Is provided, listing the coefficients used to convert sensor frequency to
conductivity. Users must choose whether die 'as received' calibration or the previous calibration better represents the
sensor condition during deployment, in SEASOFT enter the chosen coefficients. The coefficient 'slope' allows small
corrections for drift between calibrations (consult the SEASOFT manual). Calibration coefficients obtained after a
repair or cleaning apply only to subsequent data.

*Measured at 3.0 S/m
Cell cleaning and electrode replatinizing tend to 'reset' the conductivity sensor to its original condition. Lack of drift in
post-cleaning-calibration indicates geometric stability of the cell and electrical stability of the sensor circuit.

Temperature sensors are normally calibrated 'as received', without adjustments, allowing a determination sensor drift. If
the calibration identifies a problem, then a second calibration Is performed after work is completed. The 'as received'
calibration Is not performed If the sensor Is damaged or non-functional, or by customer request.
An 'as received' calibration certificate Is provided, listing coefficients to convert sensor frequency to temperature. Users
must choose whether the 'as received' calibration or the previous calibration better represents the sensor condition
during deployment. In SEASOFT enter the chosen coefficients. The coefficient 'offset'allows a small correction for
drift between calibrations (consult the SEASOFT manual). Calibration coefficients obtained after a repair apply only to
subsequent data.

Cell cleaning and electrode replalinliing tend to 'reset' the conductivity sensor to its original condition. Lack of drift In
post-deaning-calibratlon indicates geometric stability of the cell and electrical stability of the sensor circuit.

Temperature sensors are normally calibrated 'as received', without adjustments, allowing a determination sensor drift. If
the calibration Identifies a problem, then a second calibration Is performed after work Is completed. The 'as received'
calibration is not performed If the sensor is damaged or non-functional, or by customer request.
An 'as received' calibration certificate is provided, listing coefficients to convert sensor frequency to temperature. Users
must choose whether the 'as received' calibration or the previous calibration tetter represents the sensor condition

The relationship between fluorescence and chlorophylt-a concentrations tn-ettu to highly variable The scale factor toted on this
document was determined using a raono-cuttam of phytopiankton (Tnalaasloslra waSssflogil) The population was assumed » be
reasonably healthy and the concentration was determined by using the absorption method To accurately determine chlorophyll
concentration using a fluorometec, you must perform secondary measurements on the populations of Interest. This is typically done
using extraction-based measurement techniques on discrete samples. For additional Information on determining chlorophyll
concentration see "Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater" part 10200 H, published jointly by the American
Public Health Association, American Water Works Association, and the Water Environment Federation.

Temperature season are normally calibrated 'as received', without adjustments, allowing a determination sensor drift. If
the calibration identifies a problem, then a second calibration is performed after work Is completed. The 'as received'
calibration is not performed If the sensor Is damaged or non-functional, or by customer request.
An 'as received' calibration certificate Is provided, listing coefficients to convert sensor frequency to temperature. Users
must choose whether the 'as received' calibration or the previous calibration better represents the sensor condition
daring deployment. In SEASOFT enter the chosen coefficients. The coefficient'offset'allows a small correction for
drift between calibrations (consult the SEASOFT manual). Calibration coefficients obtained after a repair apply only to
subsequent data.

*Measured at 3.0 S/m
Cell cleaning and electrode replatlnlzing lend to 'reset' the conductivity sensor to its original condition. Lack of drift in
post-cleaning-calibration indicates geometric stability of the cell and electrical stability of the sensor circuit.
