The Aqualog moored profiling carrier collects regular time series of vertical profiles of ocean environmental data at a fixed geographic position over extended periods of time.
The profiler is equipped with conventional oceanographic probes and makes repeated round trips up and down a taut mooring wire between the subsurface flotation and the anchor while maintaining a stable orientation with respect to the current direction.
When compared to traditional moorings, which use multiple instruments at fixed depths, the profiler acts as a lift for a single set of third-party sensors thus increasing the vertical resolution of the data while decreasing operational costs and optimizing value.
