Oyster Ground
Oyster Ground SmartBuoy,
54°25'.0N 004°02'.0E, 14/03/2006 -
These deployments form part of a
UK-Netherlands collaborative monitoring programme part-funded by
the UK Government's Department for Environment, Food and Rural
Affairs (Defra)
The location (Oyster Ground) has been selected as it is one of
the sites monitored routinely by RIKZ using survey vessels as part
of their marine monitoring programme.
The SmartBuoy will take high frequency measurements of physical,
chemical and biological variables. These data will complete the
picture of annual, seasonal and episodic (e.g., algal blooms, storm
events) changes that are observed in these coastal waters. These
data will provide insights into the mechanisms causing such changes
to occur.
