Air Deployed Oceanographic Mooring (ADOM).

Abstract

This report documents the technological accomplishments in the Air Deployed Oceanographic Mooring (ADOM) program during 1978. Technology is being developed for deploying oceanographic sensors from an aircraft in two regions of the world's oceans: the open ocean and the polar seas. Two corresponding systems are being developed: an open ocean ADOM and an Artic ADOM. Both systems are presently configured to measure temperature, conductivity, and pressure. The actions, further analysis, and investigations necessary in the continuation of the ADOM technology development are detailed. (Author)
