Moored Time Series

Moored oceanographic instruments have been deployed by our research group on offshore oil rig platforms since 1989. These instruments are designed to collect continuous time-series data at a particular depth. Parameters measured by our instruments include dissolved oxygen, conductivity, temperature, currents, nutrients, and turbidity. LUMCON scuba divers maintain these instruments.

We have moored instruments at the following locations (see map):

  • C6A and C6B (1989-2004)
  • C6C (CSI-6) (2004-present)
  • CSI-9 (2007-present)
  • Location of moored stations:

    Several stations in transect CSI-6 have permanent sampling equipment deployed.
