Is Collecting data hard? -Patricia Patticakeslicious Zapien
What kind of stuff are you doing on the boat , on the second week ? -Carlos Reyes
-Collecting data is not hard, the instruments do all the work, however analyzing and writing code to compute the data is a challenge.
- During the second weeks we are doing CTD cast throughout Eel canyon gathering data on internal wave prorogation.

What is The MMP used for ?
ReplyDelete-Lupe Rangel Pr.3
Lupe- the MMP is a mooring profiler, it goes vertically along the water column and collects data through the variety of sensors it has, it is basically a CTD that moves and collects data throughout the water column at a fixed point.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes we work at night my shift is the night shift.
