Long-Term Autonomous Measurement of Ocean Dissipation with EPS-MAPPER

Abstract

The long-term goal of this project is to demonstrate the feasibility of making high-quality, autonomous microstructure measurements from an ocean mooring. Successful development of such an instrument would enable researchers to obtain information in situations not currently possible with ship-based systems.
