The evolution of a coastal mooring system
|
A Simple Current Meter Mooring is Transformed into a Complete `Air-Sea Interaction' Monitoring System in the Gulf of Mexico
the University of South Florida (USF), College of Marine Science (CMS), Ocean Circulation Group's (OCG) coastal mooring program is a component of an evolving coastal ocean observing system for the West Florida Continental Shelf (WFS). CMS-OCG buoys, along with other platforms, provide meteorological and oceanographic observations in support of a variety of coastal ocean programs. Data acquisition has migrated from internally recording instruments for currents, ...
