DateBuffer NameData TypeDepthComments
2008-04-19 16:15ALLALL Deployed from Delaware II
2008-05-18 13:30sbe37ALL1Last data received from 1m microcat.
2008-06-05 22:00ALLALL0Buoy moved about 250m to the NW; still appears to be anchored.
2008-06-19 01:00dopplerALL4Last data received from doppler current profiler.
2008-08-05 12:00sbe37ALL180Data from 180m microcat becoming intermittent.
2008-10-20 21:40metwind_speed, wind_direction, wind_gust-4Backup wind sensor failed (readings too low).
2009-02-11 05:00metair_temperature-3Air temperature flagged as invalid (values are too high and erratic).
2009-03-12 19:00aanderaaALL2Last data received from 2m surface current meter.
2009-03-27 12:25ALLALL recovered by R/V Delaware.


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).
