The goal of this project is to measure the sub-surface environmental conditions in the White Shark Cafe, halfway between Hawaii and Baja, California. This area is frequented by White sharks, as well as other large marine mammals and sharks, and researchers do not understand what is attracting animals to this apparent ocean desert. The glider will concurrently record detections of acoustic tags carried by White sharks or other tagged animals in the region to help us census the marine life present during the study.
