Sensors
ADV (Nortek)
CT sensor
Summary
3 3-hr deployments were conducted during
falling tides (ending at low tide). We
collected Continuous current, temperature and
salinity data at a location 6m from shore and
~5cm above the subsurface of the 50m-wide Salt
Pond inlet channel, and made point measurements
of the subsurface conditions during each
deployment using a piezometer/peristaltic
pump/CT sensor set-up.
Notes
4 days at sea.
Measure submarine groundwater discharge
in Salt Pond inlet using new eddy correlation
approach. ADV and CT will be deployed together
during night-time falling tides, while
observations (temperature and salinity) of
groundwater endmember will be made using a
piezometer, peristaltic pump, CT sensor set-up.
Got Help? For 06040, we would appreciate any information on -- analog materials, contract, days at sea, dive count, funding, information to be derived, kms of navigation, national plan, NGDC Info, owner, platform, project, project number, publications, purpose, scanned materials, seismic description, station count, station description, submersible, tabulated info.
