SMHI Buoy network and ferrybox

This article provides information about the ocean buoys, coastal buoys, wave riders, and ferrybox systems used in the Swedish Coastal Monitoring Network. It describes the metrological and oceanographic equipment used, data transmission methods, and ongoing research projects. The article also introduces the new Swedish research vessel and its capabilities for monitoring and research purposes.

  1. SCOOT, Anna Willstrand Wranne 2019-05-08 SMHIBuoy network and ferrybox

  2. Buoys, ferrybox and fixed platforms • 1 Ocean buoy • 2 Coastal buoys • 4 Wave riders • 1 Ferrybox • Environmental monitoring

  3. Buoy network around the Swedish coast

  4. Metrological equipment: Air temperature: YSI Wind Speed: RM Young Air pressure: PTB110 AIS: AtoN L3 Oceanographic equipment on hull: Hull and logger: Axys Salinity: SBE16, SeaBird Sea water temperature: SBE16, SeaBird Oxygen: SBE16, SeaBird Current: AquaPro, Nortek Oceanographic equipment in water column: Inductive mooring rope: Mooring Systems Inc. Inductive Cable Coupler: SeaBird Instruments for salinity, temperature, pressure: SBE37 IM, SeaBird Data transmission hourly with Iridium modem. Ocean Buoy

  6. Ocean Buoy Results from deployment 2018-2019 Service and maintenance can be done during the monthly monitoring cruises SMHI performs.

  7. Coastal buoy SMHI owns two coastal buoys located on the Swedish west coast. The coastal buoys measure salinity, temperature, oxygen, chlorophyll fluorescence and current in near real time at the surface. Salinity, temperature and oxygen is measured at a separate CTD-system next to the buoy, in logging mode. Nationally funded project that includes: - University of Stockholm - University of Gothenburg - Kalmar, Linnæus University - Umeå University

  13. Cabled measurements at Flinten 7 SMHI has cabled measurements near the light house Flinten 7, in the Sound between Denmark and Sweden. Cooperation with the Swedish Maritime Administration. SBE Surface SBE37 that measure salinity and temperature. System on the bottom at 7m depth that measures salinity and temperature with an AML sensor with UV light antifouling protection. SBE Data is transmitted hourly from the light house over the internet.
