Deployment: KELP

2018-06-08 - 2018-10-04 Hopkins Marine Station, Monterey Bay, CA (Kelp Mooring: 36° 37.297’ N, 121° 54.102’ W) Platform:Mooring - Hopkins Marine Station (mooring)

Description

This deployment represents the mooring itself and data that has been acquired at this site or in close proximity of it, and are considered samples "inside a kelp forest":

  • ADCP data: <10 m
  • Discrete samples
  • New fronds
  • Pumping data: <15 m
