The Moored data buoys are floating platforms, which carry sensors to measure Wind Speed & Direction, Atmospheric Pressure, Air Temperature, Humidity, Conductivity, Sea Surface Temperature, Current Speed & Direction and Wave Parameters.
The buoys are equipped with global positioning system, beacon light & satellite transceiver.
Lithium battery pack is used for supplying power to the entire buoy system.
Few buoys are designed to carry additional sensors to measure water quality parameters and subsurface temperature. |
