2011-10-08 14:50ALLALL Redeployed by R/V Connecticut
2011-10-30 09:00sbe16dissolved_oxygen50Last valid 50m dissolved oxygen values received (50m tempature and salinity are okay).
2012-01-11 17:45metwind_speed, wind_direction, wind_gust-4All readings from backup (RMY) wind sensor failed.
2012-01-11 17:46metwind_speed, wind_direction, wind_gust-4All readings from primary (Gill) wind sensor failed.
2012-01-22 01:00metbarometric_pressure-3Barometric pressure sensor failed (reads too low).
2012-01-22 01:00metvisibility-3Visibility sensor failed (reads too low).
2012-02-05 13:30metwind_speed, wind_direction, wind_gust-4Replaced RMY wind sensor (old one had been broken off).
2012-02-05 13:30metbarometric_pressure-3Replaced barometric pressure sensor.
2012-02-05 13:30metvisibility-3Replaced visibility sensor.
2012-04-11 14:01dopplerALL4RDIWK ADCP reset (ensemble number back to 1). Start of averaging period minute 01.
2012-04-16 12:38ALLALL Recovered by R/V Delaware II.


Notes: Sensors highlighted in red indicate problems with this sensor during deployment. Depth is measured relative to the ocean surface with positive depths indicating depths below the ocean surface. Negative depths are heights above the surface. In the case of doppler current measurements, the depth indicates depth of first measurement:delta-depth:depth of last measurement. For instance, 10:4:106 represents currents measured every 4 meters from 10 meters down to 106 meters (28 depths in all).
