We describe recent progress in systems and algorithms for underwater robots with applications to the monitoring of the coastal ocean. We describe a new algorithm for area coverage with a strong theoretical guarantee and a data fusion method for a communication-constrained underwater multi-robot system. Experimental results from sea trials (~6 weeks) will be presented. We also give a brief overview of the underlying systems infrastructure that we have built to support the experiments and field trials.
