Purpose
|
|
Test interaction of acoustic instruments, test interaction of instruments with tripod, test various sampling schemes, collect previously uncollected data off Santa Cruz Municipal Wharf. National Community Sediment Transport Model.
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
|
Suspended sediment concentrations, currents, waves, orbital velocities, tides, shear velocities, grain size
|
|
|
Summary
|
|
The tripod that is to be used in the spring 2001 Grays Harbor wave refraction
|
|
experiment was outfitted with groups of instruments and lowered off the side
|
|
of the Santa Cruz Municipal Wharf into the water and data were collected.
|
|
after a few sampling periods the tripod was retrieved, data were downloaded
|
|
and evaluated, sampling schemes were altered and instruments changed out and
|
|
the tripod was deployed again. Ten sampling schemes/ instrument groupings were
|
|
tested. Data were collected for longer time periods overnight.
|
|
grab samples were taken for instrument calibration and to determine grain size.
