Sea surface temperature is collected via permanent scientific equipment on board the MI research vessel RV Lough Beltra. Data includes temperature from the hull mounted sensor known as 'Hull Sea Temperature' and temperature/salinity from the temperature sensor known as 'Windmill Sea Temperature'. Data collection from the instrumentation is on a …
CTD or Conductivity Temperature Depth stations measure temperature, conductivity and depth of the water column at various depths from the surface to within 10m of the seafloor. A CTD is the oceanographic instrument used to determine the conductivity, temperature, and depth of the ocean. The CTD may be incorporated into …
45 stations including CTD, CTD-SAPS and ROV, taken on board RV Celtic Explorer cruise CE14009 in June 2014 during the Ecosystem functioning and biodiversity at Whittard Canyon Survey. A large instrument package called a CTD is the standard workhorse of oceanographers for acquiring water column profiles. It is called a …

A large instrument package called a CTD is the standard workhorse of oceanographers for acquiring water column profiles. …
147 stations including CTD, Zooplankton Net, XBT, Multinet, Argo Float, ADCP and Trawl taken on board RV Celtic Explorer cruise in April-May 2015 during the Biodiscovery and deep ocean ecosystems survey. A large instrument package called a CTD is the standard workhorse of oceanographers for acquiring water column profiles. It …
Automatic River Monitoring (ie. ARMS) stations monitor the following parameters Water temperature (degC), Conductivity (milli Siemens/cm), Nephelometer (millivolts), CDOM (millivolts), Water level (mm), Dissolved oxygen (% Saturation), Dissolved oxygen (mg/l), and pH (pH units). River monitoring has taken place in the Burrishoole catchment, on the Glenamong, Black and Rough rivers …
The Irish Weather Buoy Network is a network of 5 weather buoys around Ireland. These weather buoys are moored surface buoys with instruments which collect weather and ocean data including air temperature, atmospheric humidity, sea surface temperature, sea temperature and salinity on moored chain, wave statistics and wind speed/direction. The …
The hydrodynamic model, ROMS (Regional Ocean Modeling System), is run for a domain that covers a significant portion of the northeast Atlantic at a resolution of 2.5 km and and with 40 vertical levels.7-day forecasts are generated for research purposes and for comparison with measured data. We use NCEP GFS …
32 sample stations including CTD, Plankton Net (0-200m), Plankton Net (0-600m), Phytoplankton net (25 microns), Boxcore and ROV taken on board the RV Celtic Explorer in September 2008 during the Bright Sparks Award survey. A large instrument package called a CTD is the standard workhorse of oceanographers for acquiring water …
Data from the underway system includes observations and measurements of metocean conditions including air temperature, atmospheric pressure, relative humidity, sea temperature, salinity and wind speed/direction. Data has been collected in survey areas including the greater North Atlantic Ocean, Irish Sea, Saint Georges Channel, Celtic Sea, North Sea and Inner Seas …
