excursion between April 8 - 9 was real and was picked up by all instruments and correspondingly
seen in specific conductance and temperature variability across the instrument rack (Fig. 1).
Figure 1.
Environmental conditions encountered during deployment at the MTU site. Test sensor array deployed at 4.5 m
fixed depth, variation in local water levels indicate active water flow around instruments (
Top Panel
). Variation in specific
conductivity (red) and temperature (green) at depth of instrument sensor detected by an SBE 26 and two RBR Solo
thermistors (
Middle Panel
). Temperature range determined from max-min temperatures detected by 4 RBR thermistors
spanning instrument sensor array (
