Underwater robots, like Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) and Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs), are promising tools for the exploration and study of the under-ice environment and the ecosystems that thrive there. However, state estimation is a well-known problem for robotic systems, especially, for the ones that travel underwater. In this paper, $w$e present a tightly-coupled multi-sensors fu...
