Sentences with phrase «moored array»

The meridional overturning circulation (MOC) is computed from the sum of the Gulf Stream transport through the Florida Straits, directly measured via electromagnetic cables; the Ekman transport, estimated from QuikSCAT winds; and the midocean geostrophic transport, estimated from the moored array instruments.

The OSNAP moored array was deployed in 2014 and will be fully recovered for the first time in 2016.

The moored array time series, started in 2004 and completed in 2014, was maintained by the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (USA), with water property observations collected by investigators from Lamont - Doherty Earth Observatory (USA), Bedford Institute of Oceanography (Canada) and WHOI.

Data include transport and heat flux estimates from the moored array at 26 ˚N that started in 2004 together with the long - term cable observations.

Map of study area with 2014 - 16 mooring array in box near 78 N across Belgica Trough.

Around Cape Cod, a similar array will monitor the ecosystems crucial to local fisheries for up to five years, after which the moorings will be moved to study other coastal ecosystems, including the Gulf of Mexico.

Since receiving their implants last October, the 14 locally broadcasting lingcod have continually reported their whereabouts to an array of receivers moored at the bottom of a bay northwest of Cordova called Port Gravina.

Last week, at the American Geophysical Union's Ocean Sciences meeting here, scientists presented the first data from an array of instruments moored in the subpolar North Atlantic.

At the meeting, researchers working with the 21 moorings of the 26 ° N array also released their latest findings, which include measurements through February 2017.

Another reason to study the AMOC in the subpolar North Atlantic is that the rugged ocean floor in this region carves the current pathways up into tortuous tributaries, unlike the relatively smooth flows at 26 ° N. OSNAP's stationary moorings can not trace these meandering pathways, so the array is supplemented by drifting floats.

Our research stations monitor key indicators of our changing climate through meteorological stations, oceanographic moorings, and an expanding array of sensors across the landscape and seascape.

A typical oceanographic mooring, like one deployed in the northwest Atlantic Ocean by the Global Ocean Ecoystems Dynamics (GLOBEC) program, holds a large array of instrumentation: seven current meters, seven temperature gauges, three optical turbidity scanners, four salinity / conductivity / pressure meters, and one Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) that records surface ocean current patterns around the mooring.

Global - Scale Node In the Argentine Basin, this array will use a mix of fixed (moorings) and mobile (gliders) assets to sample across multiple space and time scales.

Global - Scale Node Southwest of Chile, this array will use a mix of fixed (moorings) and mobile (gliders) assets to sample across multiple space and time scales.

When the QUEphone is ascending / descending it gets pushed around by the ocean currents so it can't be as accurate for locating the source of seismic events as a moored hydrophone array, which is why it's called Quasi-Eulerian.

This has many applications including early tsunami warning, but also offers a cheap alternative to acoustic monitoring with a moored hydrophone array which requires a ship to retrieve the data.

Some marine observations are improving in quality and number — SST is particularly well served by a range of different satellite instruments, the moored buoy arrays and a large number of surface drifters — while others are declining or being maintained.
