Exploring Technological Innovations in Southern Ocean Mooring: Workshop Insights from Hobart, 2014

The Deep-water Mooring Workshop held in Hobart on May 5-6, 2014, focused on the unique opportunities and technological considerations for mooring deployments in the Southern Ocean. Discussions highlighted the potential of Southern Ocean sites for advanced measurement capabilities, comparing them to hurricane buoy measurements. Key topics included the feasibility of turbulent measurements, noise management in SOFS moorings, and the need for simultaneous wave and turbulence data. Participants also explored innovative solutions for measuring atmospheric and oceanic interactions, aiming to enhance scientific understanding.

  1. Discussion: Tuesday Wealth from Oceans National Research Flagship Deep-water mooring workshop, Hobart, May 5-6, 2014.

  2. Discussion points • General comments from all • What does Southern Ocean Site offer (e.g., vshurrican buoy measurements) • Technological considerations • Follow from that: • SOTS offers a possible unique opportunity as a Southern Ocean (high wind/wave) long-term mooring deployment. • What does Southern Ocean Site offer (e.g., vshurrican buoy measurements) • Wave-Ocean • Technological • Solutions offered yesterday focussed on testing of wave fields (GPS/waverider/etc) • Turbulent measurements feasible (particularly if PULSE mooring is accessible) • SOFS mooring probably too noise • Ambient noise measurements • Redundant sensors to deal with conditions • Scientific • Relatively few studies with simultaneous wave and turbulence data. • OSMOSIS update? • SOFS near to region of max <w2>/u*2 which is ok location to try and determine this contribution (directional wind/wave effects). There are better locations • How do we separate alternative mixing mechanisms? • Wave-atmosphere • Can you measure covariance fluxes from surface buoy like SOFS
