Mooring History:
DateBuffer NameData TypeDepthComments
2005-04-29 03:30ALLALL Redeployed by RV Delaware II
2005-05-08 08:00optics_dALL18Last data received from deep optics at 18m (DLFS went to zero 9 hrs earlier).
2005-07-31 12:00ALLALL0Cellphone transmissions becoming intermittent.
2005-08-04 21:00ALLALL0Last cellphone transmission was received. Cellular company reports that the buoy's cellphone is roaming and are looking into the problem.
2005-08-07 19:00dopplerALL4Last valid data received from 4m doppler current profiler.
2005-08-20 14:15dopplerALL4External battery pack added to doppler; valid doppler data being received once again.
2005-10-13 07:00dopplerALL4Last valid data received from RDI current profiler.
2005-10-22 16:15ALLALL Recovered by R/V Argo Maine.


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).
