The buoy is configured as a sensor-float with a Campbell Scientific logger, a spread-spectrum radio for communicating with the on-reef wireless network, a GPS and initially a surface mounted (30cm under the water surface) thermistor.The float is moored in the lagoon of Heron Island in around 3m of water and will be used to monitor the flow of water through the lagoon.
