Description
Site Palmyra Atoll, (5.88467, -162.10281 ) ARGOS ID 307-001. Time series data from this mooring provide high resolution sea surface temperature and conductivity, and surface atmospheric pressure, air temperature, compass, surface PAR, salinity, surface UVB, subsurface PAR, and subsurface UVB, Direction component wind velocity U/V; for the surrounding coral reef ecosystem. Data telemetry also serves to alert researchers to the potential of imminent or ongoing coral reef bleaching or other natural events (hurricanes, storm damage, cooling, etc.) so that additional field observations and data collection efforts can be initiated, if warranted.
