Sensor Information for UMOOS Mooring: M0104

Mooring History:
DateBuffer NameData TypeDepthComments
2003-10-07 23:15ALLALL Redeployed by R/V Connecticut
2004-01-01 01:00ALLALL Goes transmitter failed (leap year problem with Seimac transmitter)
2004-01-14 12:00metwind_speed-4Wind readings went to zero.
2004-01-18 15:00metwind_speed, wind_direction, wind_gust-4Winds appear okay.
2004-01-19 00:00accelerometersignificant_wave_height0Some questionably low wave height data has been received during stormy periods, however most of the data are believed to be valid.
2004-02-19 13:00metwind_speed-4Wind speeds too low, flagged as invalid. Problem most likely with prop bearings.
2004-04-15 00:00optics_s2Chlorophyll values too high, flagged as invalid.
2004-06-04 22:30ALLALL 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).
