Surface Temp Movie: Combined remote-sensing IR and in situ measurements
Below is a movie of surface Temperature at the New River Inlet on May 7th 2012 during the ONR-funded RIVET I experiment. The temperature is derived by combining airborne IR (Luc Lenain in Ken Melville’s group at SIO) with in situ temperature sensors. The top panel shows the tide level and the arrow to the right shows the currents … Read More

New River CTD+F casts
Data from CTD+F casts have now been processed. Casts were made from a small boat on dye release days. The CTD+F setup included a Seabird CTD and WET Labs single-channel fluorometer. Casts were generally made from near the surface to the bed. Below is an example of mean dye and temperature profiles from 6 May, 2012. Data are now available … Read More
New River Inlet Jetski data now posted on ftp site
The jetski data from the RIVET I experiment at the New River Inlet is now posted at our ftp site. If you do not have ftp access, please contact falk for access. Below are two examples of the Dye and Temperature data from two days superimposed on the New River Inlet bathymetry. The listing of the ftp directory looks like: … Read More
Movie of May 3rd Ebb Tide Drifter Trajectories
The above movie was made by Matthew Spydell. It shows May 3rd ebb tide drifter trajectories from the RIVET experiment at New River Inlet. Bathymetry is shaded. Land regions are in gray. The bar on top indicates elapsed time (in hours) since the start of the release. For more information on this release look at this blog entry. This movie … Read More
FTP data site is now up
RIVET-ers: our ftp data site is now up. We are slowly in the process of putting processed and quality controlled data onto it. To access the ftp site please ftp to ftp://rivet@ftp.iod.ucsd.edu/ or use the ftp shell program and ftp to ftp.iod.ucsd.edu with username “rivet” If you would like access to the data please email falk feddersen (ffeddersen at ucsd.edu) … Read More
Results from both WireWalkers : both deployments
All the Wirewalker data has now been processed. Below are plots for WW1 deployment 2 and WW2 deployments 1 & 2. Note in the plots below that the dark cross-hatched areas are times when the WW data is bad. See the previous post for the map of the WW locations. WW1 Deployment 2 WireWalker 2, deployment 1 WireWalker 2, deployment … Read More
WireWalker #1 Deployment 1 results
We now have our first look at the wirewalker (WW) mooring observations. The wirewalkers use the up and down motion of the sea-surface to move a CTD+fluorometer profiling package up and down the water column. As such, good vertical and tempral resolution of the watercolumn can be acheived with a single sensor. During RIVET-I, we deployed 2 WW in … Read More
Airborne Dye Movie from May 11th 2012
Animation of “dye” concentration from New River Inlet on May 11th 2012. Dye concentration is derived by differencing measured light at two wavelengths and is indicated by the black color. Dye is released in a single bomb up the inlet ~500 m from the junction with the inter-coastal waterwaterway (ICW). It propagates downstreamon the ebb tide. Unlike previous releases, the … Read More
