DateBuffer NameData TypeDepthComments
2016-07-08 13:15ALLALL Redeployed by R/V Connecticut
2016-11-19 00:00metvisibility-3Visibility data flagged as invalid (too low)
2017-02-08 04:00goesAL0No Goes transmissions for 10 hours (possibly related to lower battery voltage).
2017-02-11 07:00goesAL0Last Goes transmission received (error shows time out waiting for response from transmitter)
2017-03-20 21:00sbe37ALL20Last data received from 20m IM (talkthrough attempts were unsuccessful).
2017-04-20 10:00diagnosticsgps_lat,gps_lon0Last valid BAE GPS position received (same fix repeated since this time)
2017-06-19 15:00diagnosticsgps_lat,gps_lon0Talk-through to primary GPS re-established valid data from the instrument - gps latitude and longitude variables were unflagged and are valid.
2017-06-20 00:00aanderaacurrent_speed2Reported current speeds are too high and erratic; data has been flagged as invalid.
2017-07-20 02:00sbe16ALL52Last data received from 52m SBE16/transmissometer
2017-09-22 16:00sbe37ALL50Last data received from 20m SBE37IM. Talk-through efforts were unsuccessful in receiving a response from the instrument.
2017-12-08 13:30ALLALL Recovered by R/V Connecticut. Heavily fouled with mussels; fishing gear entangled with wire. Gill sonic anemometer was damaged during recovery operations.


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).
