DateBuffer NameData TypeDepthComments
2003-01-16 02:09ALLALL Redeployed by R/V Argo Maine
2003-01-17 06:00ALLALL Cell phone calls becoming very intermittent in periods of cold/windy weather
2003-01-22 07:00metwind_speed,wind_gust-4Wind speeds flagged as invalid, reading 0
2003-01-25 00:00metwind_speed, wind_gust-4Wind speed and gust readings returned to normal values and appear valid.
2003-01-29 23:00ALLALL Very intermittent Goes satellite transmission from this buoy after this date. Cell phone working intermittently.
2003-02-14 00:00metwind_speed,wind_gust-4Wind speed and gust back to zero, flagged as invalid
2003-02-18 12:00metwind_speed,wind_gust-4Wind speed and gust readings appear okay once again
2003-03-03 12:00ALLALL Goes messages being received again from buoy I
2003-03-26 02:00metwind_speed-4Wind speed and gust to 0, flagged as invalid.
2003-04-24 23:15metwind_speed-4Wind sensor replaced. All wind geophysical parameters unflagged.
2003-06-08 10:00ALLALL Cell phone did not call in for 12 hours, appears OK now.
2003-07-09 10:30ALLALL 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).
