Oregon Shelf Buoy Redeployed

Oregon State University partners deployed the NANOOS-supported long-term mooring "CB-06" located 6 nmiles off Coos Bay, Oregon, on 7 April 2021. The at-sea effort was led by Prof. Burke Hales and accomplished from the Pacific Eagle, a tug that took on special cranes and a mini-A frame for the job. The mooring is currently reporting near-surface temperature, salinity, and solar radiation on NVS now, with biogeochemical data in cooperation with NOAA PMEL expected soon. This buoy is part of NOAA’s Ocean Acidification Observing Network, measuring ocean acidification variables.
