You’ve been mapping ice melt with those new drones. Have you considered deploying low‑profile autonomous sensors to gather data without disturbing the fragile environment?

That’s a great point. We’ve been running the drones for the first season and are already looking at passive sensor arrays. The challenge is to get enough power and data bandwidth without adding too much bulk. I’m drafting a protocol for low‑profile buoys that use solar and tidal energy, then we’ll run a pilot test next spring. If it works, it could give us continuous readings with minimal footprint. Thanks for the suggestion—always good to keep the disturbance as low as possible.
