Add new ADCP on board of two of the four major ADRICOSM CTD network vessels Vanessa Cardin National Istitute of Oceanography and Experimental Geophysics - OGS With the contribution of: Institute of Oceanography and Fisheries – Split Agenzia Regionale Prevenzione e Ambiente dell’Emilia-Romagna ADRICOSM-EXTension Final Meeting Rome 20-22 November 2006
Task 1.5 Introduction of new measurements in existing observational areas for training purposes Subtask 1.5.1: Add new ADCP on board of the four major ADRICOSM CTD network vessels. A new VM-ADCP system for a 10-25 m long ship to be used in shallow waters (10-50m) will be implemented in the four ADRICOSM coastal areas networks and new entry partners will be participating to enforce training for future implementations in other coastal areas. Small ships roll is large, compromising therefore ADCP data quality. The problems related to the installation of such device on each of the five ADRICOSM ships involved in the four coastal areas networks will be assessed and the necessary developments carried out. After the initial problem assessment phase the combined collection of CTD and ADCP data will be carried out at monthly time scales in the four traditional CTD coastal monitoring networks of ADRICOSM. Responsible:OGS, Participants: ARPA-Daphne, NIB.MBS, LBM.TS, RBI.RCM, IOF, HEIS, UNIBE, IE, IBM Duration: 0-24
