2010-07-23 00:00metbarometric_pressure-4pressure (offset) arbitrarily raised 0.6mb for NDBC
2010-07-23 14:10ALLALL Deployed.
2011-04-07 12:30ALLALL Recovered. New buoy is scheduled to be deployed after April 18, 2011.


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).
