Sensor Information for UMOOS Mooring: I0102

Mooring History:

Date	Buffer Name	Data Type	Depth	Comments
2002-01-06 17:00	ALL	ALL		Deployed.
2002-01-06 17:00	optics_s	ALL	3	No ocean color optics buffers (2m) received since deployment.
2002-01-06 17:00	sbe37	salinity	20	Salinity from 20m SBE37IM invalid (reads 0 since deployment). Temp at 20m is OK.
2002-01-06 17:00	optics_a	time	-3	Surface optics buffer (id 23) has invalid date/time words. Otherwise okay.
2002-01-09 00:00	optics_d	ALL	18	End of small pack buffers (18m, optic_d, from ind. modem, id 21) received from data logger.
2002-01-13 09:00	sbe37	salinity	20	Salinity from 20m microcat appears to be working.
2002-04-13 17:00	met	wind_direction	-4	Magnetic variation applied to wind direction; all wind directions are now relative to true north.
2002-06-27 19:00	aanderaa	temperature	2	Aanderaa temperature started to become erratic.
2002-06-29 04:00	aanderaa	ALL	2	Surface current meter has stopped sending data, probable battery failure.
2002-07-24 09:45	ALL	ALL		Buoy I0102 was 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).
