Rachel Martin, of the Combined Joint Task Force - Horn of Africa meteorology and oceanographic section, looks out at the ocean before an ocean sensor, known as an Apex profiling float, drop into the Gulf of Aden, Sept. 2, 2013. The float collects data on subsurface currents, temperatures, acoustics and salinity which provide underwater forecasts.
