Instruments

Examples

• All

• Directional Wave Measurements - Describes how these measurements can be made with most of our instruments.

• ADP - Acoustic Doppler Profiler

• Hurricane Georges - Describes how an ADP and SonWave software were used to collect ocean-current profile data and wave data during Hurricane Georges in the Fall of 1998 off the southeast Florida coast.

• ADV - Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter

• Wave Field Measurements - Shows how several ADVs were used to study currents generated by a wave field at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Waterways Experiment Station in Vicksburg, Mississippi.
• Wave Flume Measurements - Shows how an ADV was used to measure the orbital velocities of a wave field within a flume.

• ADVOcean - ADV Ocean Probe

• NPS's AUV Phoenix - Describes how the Naval Postgraduate School's Center for Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Research used an ADVOcean to collect data for wave directional spectrum estimates.

• Argonaut-XR and YSI Sonde

• Kuwaiti Environmental Damage Assessment - Describes a water monitoring project that uses a YSI multiparameter sonde and Argonaut-XR.
