M4: Modular Meteo-Marine Monitoring Buoy

bullet

M4 - The ultimate monitoring buoy
A
completely modular real-time system for air and water monitoring consisting of:
– A surface buoy equipped with modular meteorological sensors and sub-surface modular oceanographic sensors.
– A mooring line with modular oceanographic sensors positioned at any number of depths.
– A bottom mount equipped with an upward looking ADCP for current profiling, complete with full multi-directional wave gauge capabilities.
– The Intelligent System Control and Logging.
Prominent features:
– The system operations can be remotely configured without the need of local intervention.
– The remote data download allows peace of mind and real-time system checkout.
– The self diagnostic capabilities and subsequent alarm broadcast minimize the need for routine maintenance.
– The Intelligent System Control transfers the data over the communication link (radio, sat or cellular phone), logs data internally to a file and transmit them at an user-defined interval or when an user-defined file size is reached, checks the sensors status and power (when a sensor malfunctioning or a power failure is detected, the M4 sends an alert message describing the specific problem encountered).
Smart Sampling™: when any combination of specified values with a specified persistence is detected, the M4 can switch to a specified setup until the detected conditions persist. Any number of combinations of multiple threshold values can be set. Example: when chlorophyll concentration exceeds value1 for a specified duration, the M4 sends a Smart Sampling Change message and starts sampling more frequently until the chlorophyll concentration falls below value1 for a specified duration.
Smart Alarm™: when any combination of specified values with a specified persistence is detected, an alarm is sent along with the measured value and persistence.
Remote Setup™: every operational setup of the M4 can be changed remotely, and sent to the M4 via the communication link.

3Hull: Trimaran for Doppler profilers

bullet

3Hull - The ultimate boat for your Doppler profiler
The 3Hull is the ultimate boat for your Doppler profiler, bringing unparalleled improvements in quantity, quality and reliability to a wide range of research, monitoring, and engineering applications.
When profiling current on a moving boat the data quantity, quality and reliability depend on stability of the instrument on the water and transducer draft. The best data require the highest boat stability and the lowest transducer draft.
We designed the 3Hull boat to meet these requirements. The 3Hull boat has the highest stability and allows the lowest transducer draft that you can possibly get. The working environment of a Doppler profiler on a 3Hull boat is just as ideal as possible.

WetLABS Water Quality Monitor
(Temperature, Conductivity, Pressure, Dissolved Oxygen, Chlorophyll α and Turbidity)

bulletWQM
Accurate data, unattended
WET Labs and Sea-Bird Electronics have teamed to bring offshore research-grade measurement technology to inshore and estuarine research and ocean observing applications.
The WQM's sensors have the accuracy and precision to track subtle long-term changes in clean ocean environments. By combining multiple active and passive anti-fouling features, the WQM assures this data quality in coastal and inshore regimes. Extensively tested, field trials have demonstrated the WQM's unprecedented long-term stability in biologically rich coastal waters
.
Built for extended deployment
Biofouling and sediment loads are the dominant factors that degrade and limit the data quality from the WQM's sensors, not their inherent stability. These factors can overwhelm inadequately protected sensors and invalidate their data—often in just a few days. The WQM employs active flow control, passive flow prevention, light-blocking, active biocide injection and passive inhibitors to effectively and safely combat internal and external fouling. With fouling minimized, the superior inherent stability of the WQM sensors translates directly to superior long-term data quality.
Cost effective—now and later
The cost of monitoring is tied to the instrument life cycle and real value is ultimately provided only through quality data, day after day, month after month, year after year. The WQM provides quality data while dramatically reducing the need for field and factory service. The bottom line: the WQM delivers unequalled long-term data quality and minimizes operational and maintenance costs.
