Mooring History:
DateBuffer NameData TypeDepthComments
2020-10-06 02:45ALLALL deployed by the R/V Connecticut
2020-11-29 12:33sbe37ALL1lastr data from ctd. Low voltage. vMain = 6.96, vLith = 3.03, "not logging, low battery"
2020-12-15 12:00ALLALL battery voltage has been falling since Nov, daily lows s/b below 11.5 volts in Jan. Not charging to 14.5V like other buoys.
2021-06-16 16:45ALLALL Recovered by R/V Connecticut
2021-12-13 12:00sbe37ALL1no data available on instrument after recovery (reason unknown)


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).
