MOOMZ 2

Filed Under (Chile, gliders, Iquique, MOOMZ, OMZ, seagliders, SG157) by shearmar on 13-03-2009

sg157 continues to make full 1000 m dives on its way offshore. The top of the OMZ has been deepening in the offshore direction, and now the top is at about 100 m. Measurements from the upcast (red) are more reliable due to the large time constant associated with the DO sensor.


I’m tuning the roll a little bit and dialing back the vbd:
cmdfile:
$C_VBD,2720
$C_ROLL_DIVE,2500
$C_ROLL_CLIMB,2400

$GO

And, per Amanda’s request I’m going to turn on the optics for the full depth for a few dives.
