Environmental conditions encountered during the 1 month freshwater deployment adjacent to the NOAA
GLERL Pier. Test sensor array deployed on bottom, variation in local water depth measured as PSIA by an SBE 26PLUS
Wave gauge indicating active water flow around instrument (
Top Panel
). Variation in salinity (green) and temperature (red)
at depth of instrument sensor detected by SBE 26 and two RBR Solo thermistors (
Middle Panel
). Temperature range
determined from max-min temperatures detected by RBR and SBE thermistors spanning instrument sensor array (
Bottom
Panel
). Storm event contributed to higher variation in environmental conditions near end of deployment period.
