Brief description
The oceanographic mooring instrument was deployed from 10th November 2009 to 4th January 2010, on a mooring located at Ningaloo off Tantabiddi Beach in 75 m of water. Temperature, velocity and conductivity were measured. It involved the deployment of Seabird temperature sensors (SBE39), Seabird conductivity-temperature-pressure sensor (SBE 37-MSP), Nortek Acoustic Doppler Velocity meters (ADV) and an acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP). Measurements were made between 15 metres and 72 metres below Mean Sea Level.Lineage
Statement: Details of instrument depth within water column, type of measurement and sampling period in seconds are attached along with instrument specifications.
Statement: Acoustic Doppler current profiler for velocity measurements where depth is marked X metres to the surface.
