Abstract

A technique using surface wave energy to move a sensor platform up and down a mooring wire is introduced in this paper. It permits a complete vertical profile to be obtained with a single sensor, eliminating the need for multiple sensors on the mooring line. The sensor platform can be pre-programmed to dwell at depth for set periods of time. The platform can be configured to carry a variety of payloads including CTD, optical and acoustic sensors.
