A compact buoy system for ship-use in the measurement of ocean micro-structures over a monthly period
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1966/10)The oceanographic buoy described is for ship use. It allows a single ship to make synoptic studies of a limited body of water using a number of buoys. The purpose was to create an economic, simple, dependable sea unit, ... -
A compact thermometer for the study of microthermal structure from oceanographic buoys
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1965/10)A solid-state, thermistor thermometer, of small physical size (13 cm x 14 cm), low cost ($21.00 worth of parts), and long-term stability (of the order of 0.01 C in 60 days) is described. It has been used successfully - in ... -
An acoustic system for releasing submerged oceanographic buoys from their anchors on demand using a 1.4 kc compact source
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1963/12)The paper describes an anchor-releasing device for the recovery of moored oceanographic equipment. The releaser is actuated by a remote acoustic signal emitted by a small and powerful 1400 cps sound source rather than by ... -
Analysis of Swallow float data at SACLANTCEN: Software notes for future use and developments
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1996/02)A Swallow float is as a neutrally buoyant, freely drifting unit which is deployed in deep water, equipped with one pressure sensor (hydrophone) and three orthogonal particle velocity sensors (geophones) to measure acoustic ...
