How Extended Range ADCPs Improve Data Quality in Moored Systems

Wed, 16 Feb 2022 23:11:02 GMT

Presenters: Ryan Nicoll, DSA Ocean and Paul Devine, Teledyne Marine

If an oceanographic mooring deflects too much, even the most sophisticated ADCPs will record useless data. Ideally, we can check mooring deflections in advance of deployment to build confidence in data quality. Calculating the deflection of a mooring line is a tricky process, as it's not an obvious calculation you can do in your head or on paper for most typical systems. In today's webinar, Ryan and Paul will walk you through why it's important to understand how extended range ADCPs improve data quality in moored systems. They will use ProteusDS Oceanographic to illustrate how mooring deflection is calculated in advance with a comparison of several conceptual moorings using Teledyne Pinnacle and Long Ranger ADCPs. This conversational webinar will walk you through your design considerations, the trade-offs, and the tools that can be used to assist you in real-world application.

Teledyne Marine Tech Talk Episode 35 - Managing Waterways along the Suwannee...

Tue, 04 May 2021 16:12:34 GMT

Guests: Tara Rogers, Hydrologic Data Service Chief and Kevin Jones, Hydrologic Survey Technician, Suwannee River Water Management District

Did you know that the Suwanee River Water Management District is responsible for managing the water supply, water quality, flood protection, and natural systems in a 15-county area of Florida including 13 different river basins, and over 450 springs? They do all of this with a core team of 66 staff members and a variety of hydrologic monitoring equipment from Teledyne RD Instruments. On this episode of the podcast we have an interesting and fun discussion with Tara Rogers and Kevin Jones on the scope of their work, areas of responsibility, challenging operating conditions, and how important the data they collect is to residents and even the National Weather Service.

For more information on the work that Tara, Kevin, and the team at the Suwannee River Water Management District are doing to monitor and protect the rivers and springs in their district, visit their website at www.mysuwanneeriver.com.

Protection of Salmon Habitats in Alaska

Mon, 14 Dec 2020 22:59:26 GMT

Guest: Leah Ellis, Alaska Department of Fish and Game

In this fall series of podcasts, we introduce some of the winners and general entrants from the 2020 Teledyne Marine Photo Contest. Teledyne's annual Photo/ Data Contest concluded with over 80 qualified submissions that helped the company donate over $1200 to Save the Children as part of a charitable giving campaign.

In this episode, we talk to Leah Elllis, a Habitat Biologist in the Instream Flow Program at the Alaska Department of Fish and Game. Leah was one of our contestants this year in our Teledyne Marine Photo Contest and the winner of one of our Honorable Mention photo awards. Leah's photo was of her team out “in the elements" collecting data. The mission of their program is to acquire water rights in rivers and lakes for fish habitat protection.

Studying the Fish Biodiversity of Mesophotic Reefs

Fri, 04 Sep 2020 23:56:04 GMT

Guest: Tim Noyes, a PhD candidate at the University of Salford, UK

In this summer series of podcasts, we introduce the winners of our Teledyne Marine Academic Grant for 2020. This grant offers universities and institutions the opportunity to utilize several of our flagship products free of charge for up to a six-month period to support their research programs.

In this episode, we meet Tim Noyes, a PhD candidate at the University of Salford, UK and a research specialist at the Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences in Bermuda. Tim's research focuses on determining spatial and temporal trends of mesophotic reef fish biodiversity. Using the awarded Sentinel V100 ADCP from RD Instruments and the Benthos R500 Acoustic Release system, Tim will be working to quantify the hydrodynamic variability within the mesophotic coral ecosystems and adjacent shallow-water reefs.
