Mooring History:
DateBuffer NameData TypeDepthComments
2020-11-07 23:41ALLALL Redeployed by R/V Connecticut
2020-11-07 23:42ALLALL unable to dial in to iridium modem. Modem will not answer. Can connect occasionally at end of callback session before hangup
2020-12-20 03:04sbe37ALL215last good data. IM sent repeated data, then -273 temp and 1/1/2000 date. failed.
2020-12-21 06:00ALLALL main battery voltage suddenly dropped below 10v. Not charging fully. Buoy may go off air soon.
2020-12-27 01:00ALLALL last data from iridium modem. may be from low voltage or from attempts to set lo voltage threshhold.
2021-01-01 01:24ALLALL buoy off the air, last GOES transmission w/data. next two transmissions had empty buffers, then silence.
2021-01-18 00:00ALLALL0Buoy moved about 300m to the WNW over a 6-hour period.
2021-02-02 15:00ALLALL0Buoy moved about 1000 m to the WNW over a 15-hour period.
2021-03-02 00:00ALLALL0Buoy moved about 300 m to the ESE.
2021-03-29 18:00ALLALL0Buoy moved about 500m over a 3 hour period.
2021-04-17 03:00ALLALL0Buoy is adrift (no longer anchored).
2021-06-12 12:00ALLALL Recovered by R/V Conneticut


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).
