Doing an experiment on Great Pond yesterday - high winds stopped play. EcoSub AUV wasn't bothered but we on the boat were.

Lucky for the two people we found going back, who had capsized their canoe (no life jackets and no clue what to do).

Harry and Claire - good boat skills.

Over 2 years to create - the first paper for my PhD is published.

How are lake monitoring programmes weather-biased, what are the consequences, and what can you do ? (spoiler - mobile automation is the solution):
