Equipment Used
tripod

opticalbackscattersensor
wavepressure
ADV
CTmeter
Purpose
Recover, refurbish and re-deploy instrument packages which collect in
situ measurements of currents, waves and suspended sediment in coral reef
environments off Northwest Maui, Hawaii. Recover previously deployed tripod
mounted camera system, which collects underwater digital imagery of live coral
and sediment suspension and accumulation at a specific time interval.
Information to be Derived
Current speed and direction, suspended sediment concentration,
salinity, wave height and period.
Summary
Maui instrument tripods, mini-probes and wave gauges will be recovered
from location using the vessel Alyce C. Data from the previous deployment will
be downloaded and the instruments will be refurbished. Some of the instruments
will be re-deployed at the same locations for further measurements.
