Upper Ocean Mooring Data Repository - CoOP: Coastal Ocean Processes Program
Ocean Sensors

SubSurface Instrument Depths, Serial Numbers, and Timing

The CoOP Inner-Shelf Study was comprised of a suite of moorings as well as pole-mounted and dock-mounted sensors. The velocity, temperature and salinity data presented here is from 5 sites. Three of those sites were WHOI-instrumented mooring pairs, and instrumentation from those moorings is described here, along with information on the SeaGuage moorings.

Acronyms for instruments are provided in a list.
