Marine Mammals

Saildrone’s passive acoustics array is designed to detect marine mammals like whales and dolphins to mitigate impacts on those species from human activities.

The award is one of five new projects to receive a total of $3.5 million for ocean co-use and transmission.

Offshore wind energy is a key element in reducing dependence on fossil fuels, but it’s important to understand the potential effects on marine mammals and the ocean ecosystem during and after development.

The need for renewable energy sources is at an all-time high. Saildrone’s low-carbon, wind-powered ocean drones can help make new offshore wind farms a reality.

To establish confidence in Saildrone fit for purpose data, we have sought out and developed relationships with recognized experts in the fields of meteorology and oceanography.

Changes in the Antarctic ecosystem could impact the fur seals’ food supply, making foraging harder and in turn affecting the overall health of the population.

SD 1023 captured this image in the Arctic, sparking a lively discussion among the Saildrone team and our science partners.

How innovative autonomous technology is helping scientists to solve the mystery of northern fur seals disappearing from the remote Pribilof Islands.
