Caption from Oceanus magazine, Vol. 52, No. 2, pg. 51:
An artist's conception of a possible future integrated acoustic communications system in the Arctic. Autonomous vehicles and gliders transmit data via sound signals to transponders suspended beneath the ice. The transponders send the data to the buoys antennas, and from there via satellite to scientists at WHOI and in other locations. Scientists can control vehicles movements by communicating via satellite to the buoys, which send sound signals to the vehicles.
