Presentation Transcript

  1. sound source moorings & bobber floats climode workshop 19 september 2005

  2. persistence & context • independent estimate of subduction rate • direct measurement of thickness (PV) fluxes • estimate of u & T correlation scales objectives 1. quantify the EDW formation rate through direct measurement of subsurface velocity and stratification 2. observe the pathways and evolution of recently subducted EDW and identify the mesoscale processes contributing to its horizontal redistribution and vertical modification • profiler moorings • profiling floats • bobber floats • shipboard hydrography

  3. bobber concept

  4. source array

  5. sound source moorings

  6. deployment schedule

  7. test float: position deployed 28 july in mode water eddy by jim ledwell 67.5 W 30.0 N

  8. test float: drift temperature & pressure

  9. test float: temperature profiles

  10. test float: temperature

  11. station plan
