Brief description
An Aanderaa RCM4S rotor current meter was deployed on a frame at Station BG06. This was one of three current meters placed to investigate the complex coastal jet and one of two current meters placed to investigate the strong tidal currents in the southeast corner of the bay.Deployment Details:Instrument: RCM4S #6332Instrument depth: 4mSampling interval: 30 minutesDate deployed: 23/10/1984Date recovered: 18/02/1985This study was initiated to:1. gain an understanding of the circulation of water in Bowling Green Bay2. complement concurrent studies by AIMS scientists researching the ecology, nutrient regime and trophodynamics of the coastal boundary of the Great Barrier Reef lagoon.
