ADP
pressuresensor
tidemeter
VanVeengrab
CTDmeter
GPS
tripod
Purpose
Collect wave data to calibrate SWAN refraction model,
Collection of surface sediment grab samples for ground-truthing of
multi-beam bathymetry and calibration of OBS
Information to be Derived
Grain Size; Currents; Depth from instruments to seafloor; Suspended sediment concentration; Wave height, period and direction; Salinity, temperature and density of water column
Summary
Deployed tripods off coast of SW WA. Collected wave, current and
suspended sediment information. Grab samples taken for ground-truthing and OBS
calibration. Collection of CTD profiles
Notes
Interim trips:
Nov 2, 1999 left from and returned to Grays Harbor, WA
Nov 5, 1999 left from and returned to Grays Harbor, WA
Nov 27, 1999 left from and returned from Grays Harbor, WA
Tricia Rae - all legs of deployment and retrieval were performed on
this fishing vessel
