<br />ANFOG Seaglider unit SG151, deployed in the Tasman Sea since the 22nd of April, continues to occupy a transect line extending to 115 km east of Bicheno, Tasmania. Travelling in saw-tooth trajectories to depths of 1 km, SG151 has thrice traversed the East Australian Current. It now turns around to begin its fourth lap.
